SLA-NY Happy Hour: Tuesday, Sept. 29 in Manhattan

From Leigh Hallingby, SLA-New York President-Elect:

Please join us for a drink, a snack, and good networking on Tuesday, September 29th, from 5:30 to 7:30 pm.  This occasion will also be our opportunity to honor our four SLA-NY Awardees from the 2009 Annual Conference in DC:    

Michelle Dollinger, Rising Star Award

Anne Mintz, SLA Professional Award

Pam Rollo, SLA Fellow

Eric Schwarz, Diversity Leadership Development Program Award 

There will be a short "program" at 6:15 to congratulate our four award recipients and to hear a few words from them.

Happy Hours are a regular event which the NY Chapter organizes to give members a chance to meet and chat.  Prospective members, students, and colleagues also are welcome.

There is no charge to attend, and the main agenda is to network with colleagues in a quiet space. You will have an opportunity to introduce yourself to the group and make any announcement (such as a new position, job search or job availability).  Please come and tell us who you are and, if you are looking for something, what it is. 

Midtown Executive Club 
Rumford Hall 
40 West 45th Street (betw. 5th/6th Aves). You will see a blue awning that says CQ (for Club Quarters).

PLEASE NOTE: Half-price for beer and wine until 6:30.   

 

Please RSVP to Vida Cohen at [email protected] to help us establish an attendance figure.  But feel free to drop by even if you have not RSVP'd.  

 

We hope to see you then!
