[WardFive] Thurs., March 19th Working session to continue to plan and implement a April symposium on the enhancement, promotion, & protection of Greater New York Avenue Gateway Group

Folks, 

We're stepping out of the Corridor for this meeting and will meet not far from the Ft.Totten Metro Station (Red and Green lines):

Library: Lamond-Riggs Neighborhood Library 
Room: LAR Meeting Room 2 (second floor)
Date(s): Thursday, March 19, 2015 
Time: 7:30 PM to 8:30 PM 
Organization: (GNYAGG) Greater New York Ave Gateway Group 

Lamond Riggs Library is located at South Dakota Avenue and Kennedy Street, N.E. There is a parking lot as well as parking on the street.  

The meeting place where GNYAGG met last was booked in February and now is unavailable in March.  The symposium is scheduled for April 25th with a tour tentatively planned following it.

     

Those interested in working with GNYAGG to coordinate this April symposium are welcome to attend.  The symposium will be held for the second year at The Annex at Mt. Horeb church.  

 

Volunteers are needed to continue to plan and market event as well as to help out on the day of the event.  The group is looking for sponsors for refreshments for the day and for a bus tour of the Corridor following immediately after the symposium.  Community groups that want to lend their name as co-sponsors in exchange for time and energy to help put on the symposium are welcome. The event is free and open to the public.

To express your interest, submit your ideas, or offer to be a sponsor or contact one, email greaternyavegatewaygroup@gmail.com.
