I hope everyone is doing well, and that you are being entertained by Mr. Donald “HUGE” Trump!
I want to send you a list of some events coming up. Please note the life celebration of former Commissioner Albrette “GiGi” Ransom. GiGi passed last February 22. Some of you may remember young GiGi, while a student at UDC, playing in the historic basketball game against China. Last year she was honored for her part in that game, watch her talk about it in this News Channel 8 report: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wjbGdVwiNYM
Also, come visit the Ward 5 community as Mayor Bowser is hosted at the UDC Community College this coming Monday (see full details below).
I look forward to seeing some of you.
Thank you,
Franklin Garcia
