Cinco de Derby!
May 5 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
FreePlease join your fellow Metro Housing staff at our upcoming spring mixer that we are calling
CINCO DE DERBY!!
We will meet in the second floor lounge on Friday, May 5 between 3 and 5pm for this unconventional mashup of two spring traditions.
There will be some vintage Metro Housing & MBHP swag available for those who attend as well. More details to come about this!
A few other notes:
- Cinco de Mayo, literally the fifth of May, commemorates the defeat of the invading French Army against a vastly under-resourced Mexican Army at Puebla in 1862. (It is NOT Mexican Independence Day, which is in October.)
- The Kentucky Derby, one of the premier horse races for three-year-old Thoroughbreds in the country, is run each year the first weekend of May. It is on May 6 this year.
- This is a staff-only event to appreciate all of the hard work that each of you does every day!
- Food and beverages (both soft and hard) will be served for all to enjoy!
