AGENDA
September 9, 2018
We have wrapped up our first mini-season of Thursdays @ Roosevelt.
We originally planned to conclude by August 30th, then considered extending it to October 4th, and then decided to go back to the original plan, so that we can spend the off-season working on a plan for food trucks.
We’ll retool and revise and start in the spring next year. Thanks for the support as we launched it, and please send along any suggestions you may have. Please also consider buying a T-shirt to help defray costs from this year and the start of next year. You can do so by emailing president(at)silverhillabq.org.
Note this upcoming event in your neighborhood. It is a 5K Fundraiser Run/Walk for Steelbridge, a non-profit organization.
