The Tortoise and the Hare
July 9, 2022
We all know the story and the great debate it stirs: does slow and steady win the race? A singular race... perhaps not. But what about the "big race"? Join Hare and Tortoise on a life encapsulating adventure about the choices we make and the places those choices take us. Who will win the race called Life?
