MLK Day of Service Where: Cesar Chavez Public Charter School (3701 Hayes St NE) When: Saturday, January 25, 10:30am - 3:30pm Metro: Minnesota Ave (Orange) DCYP will be joining Georgetown, DC Promise Neighborhood Initiative (DCPNI) and the greater DC community on Saturday, January 25 for the 2014 MLK Day of Service. Hundreds of Ward 7 residents and members of the Georgetown University and DC community will spend the day engaging in a variety of service projects, from creating care packages for NIH Children's Inn, to letter writing to veterans, to working with the elderly. Check-in and day-of registration begins at 10:30 am at Cesar Chavez Public Charter School for Public Policy at Parkside. The day ends with a community lunch and celebration and will conclude by 4:00 or 4:30 pm. You are welcome to stay for the lunch or can leave earlier if needed.

This event will have parking and is a short walk from the Minnesota Ave metro station (orange). For more information and to sign-up, please email DCYP.Service@gmail.com. Friday Night Jazz in Southwest Where: Westminster Presbyterian Church (400 I St SW DC) When: Friday, January 31, 6 - 9pm Metro: Waterfront (Green) Join DCYP for an evening of jazz. For $5, come and support local jazz musicians. This happens every Friday Night and in my (Sarah's) opinion, is one of the cities best kept secrets... The SW Catering company sets up a delicious meal in the basement of the church and they pipe in the music there as well. Look for the red balloon. We'll probably gather in the back. Hope you will join us! More info here.
