Catching up with the Race Street Peers
On Tuesday November 8th the Race Street Peers Steering Committee held its monthly meeting. Approximately 11 people attended the meeting and attendees represented various non-profits as well as neighborhoods as diverse as Old City, Chinatown, and Northern Liberties. The group discussed the summer 2011 programming efforts and brainstormed about ideas for Peer-sponsored events in 2012. The Steering Committee is always looking for new members. If you have great ideas for activities at the pier, let us know!
For more information about getting more involved with the Steering Committee, the meeting minutes are attached below.
The next Steering Committee meeting will take place on Tuesday, December 6th at the offices of the DRWC, 121 N. Columbus Boulevard. Meetings begin at 6:30.
