The registration money goes toward chairs for patients and their families in the oncology area of IMSS’s Hospital General Regional No. 1 in Tijuana, Grupo Animal reported, and the organizers hope to top the 1,500 participants registered last year. Later that day, Tecate Península takes over the Estadio Caliente esplanade nearby; see our week ahead.
