October 2009 Meeting

It’s time for our next Chapter Meeting! Our next meeting is Monday, October 5th from 6:30-8:00pm at ACCESS Boston. Access Boston is located at 31 St. James Ave -Suite 520 and is accessible by the Green Line (Arlington) or the Orange Line (Back Bay). We have been doing some really exciting things in the past few months, and we want YOU to come learn more and JOIN US!

Many people participated in a great service project for September 11th Day of Service and Remembrance and we want to tell you about it. And, we have several upcoming opportunities that we don’t want you to miss out on.

We will also be hearing from some AmeriCorps members and staff at ACCESS. We have decided to hold our meetings at different service locations each month so that we can learn about various AmeriCorps programs and find out how we can support current members.

Finally, come to hear more about an amazing networking and social event that we are planning. This is an event that you won’t want to miss out on in early November!

We look forward to seeing you Monday!
