FG Goes to Washington DC
 
I am leaving on Monday for Washington DC and will return on Friday, May 9.

Here's what I am doing! I will be the Gov't Affairs Rep for Idaho...the All American Chapter, Idaho Office (we have 27,000 members!)

I will most likely not be online very much, but will check in as available. Greta will be joining me on Tuesday to help celebrate my birthday!! I have a Legislative Reception to take her to that night! Celebrating in style! Yeah!!!

Thursday I have meetings with 2 Senators and 2 Congressman...and a photo op on the steps of the Capitol Building! We were told to bring an orange shirt to wear (that's the new color for MS!) I jokingly commented that was was Boise State colors and I would bring BSU shirts for everyone!!!! I don't think anyone got it!!! So, it's off to the store for BSU Orange for the group!!!!

I have Thursday night free. I am staying in Crystal City. Anyone in the area want to meet FG?

Cheryl,

Enjoy your time in DC, FG & HB 2U!

Be safe, and thanks for what you are doing.

Are you going to a Congressional hearing? If so, will it be on C-Span?
