16th District Congressional Reception
An informal meet & greet with Congressman Donald Manzullo on
Tuesday, August 21,
9 to 10 am at the
Cherry Valley PLD.
Attendance is especially requested of those who’ve received LSTA grants in the last years. Please use this opportunity to thank the congressman for supporting LSTA funding and mention how not only your library benefited from the grant, but how it also added to making your community a better place to live.
Those who’ve not received LSTA grants but wish they had, should take advantage of this opportunity to request increased LSTA funding. This has been on the top three list of issues every year at ALA’s National Legislative Day. Here’s an opportunity to mention the need without incurring the cost of a flight to DC and “bargain” room rates of $200+ for each night’s lodging as well as needing to miss several busy days out of your library building.
Bring along your business cards, library promotional material and any brochures that you have on events at your library.
Following the meet & greet, you’re invited to stay for the PALS board meeting at the same location.
