Dupont High-Heeled Drag Race!
Last night we were also among the thousands of spectators on 17th Street in Dupont for the 29th annual High Heeled Drag Race. We snapped DCPS' Whitney Anderson with Georgetown Hospital's Catherine Spaulding, MyClosetInSketches.com's Lauren Friedman, and the US Senate's Lauren Hernandez.
Luckily, the rain held off to provide a nice fall evening. Here, Vena Solutions' Jon Roberts and Exponent Philanthropy's Christine Hamma surround racer Ina Von Snipped.
Many of the restaurants and bars along 17th Street had food and drink specials to capitalize on the crowds. Here, Sagewater's Scott Seel with nonprofit consultants Maddy Wong and Elin Meliska and Georgetown University's Devin Gilhuly.
Following the race, the crowd descended into the street to greet their favorite queens and cheer on the winner. Here, Dia de Los Muertos' Velveeta and Reina Terror.
