On September 24, Namastay Sober partners with Revere Recreation and will host their third annual Tina Hinojosa memorial yoga class and dodgeball tournament at Harry Della Russo Stadium.
Tina Hinojosa was a Revere resident, a beloved yoga teacher, and an advocate for people in recovery from addiction-celebrating over 8 years sober herself! She was also a founding member of local non-profit, NamaStay Sober. She was killed in August of 2021 when a drunk driver colliding with her car in Winthrop in Winthrop Center.
This event is an opportunity to honor her beautiful life and to raise money for an organization and mission she was passionate about. To learn more and join the fun this year, please visit the event website: https://www.namastaysober.com/dodgeball2023.

The event saw teams from the City of Revere, led by Michael Hinojosa, Director of Revere Parks and Recreation, Revere Firefighters Local 926, 3rd Alarm Pizza, as well as a Namastay Sober team, other teams, and including one sponsored by Power of Recovery, a local addiction treatment company. Even Mayor Arrigo joined in on the fun and hopped on a team for a couple of games.
