It was a terrific event. A big thanks to Dustin and all on the Special Events Commitee that did so much to plan and prepare for this big night! Join us tomorrow afternoon for the Cherry Blossom Kite Festival on the National Mall. If you've been to this event, you know how awesome it is, and if you haven't, you definitely want to check it out! There will be a lot of people out with kites and ready for a good time, so it is best if you can meet with the group at 1pm. Either way, email dcyp.social@gmail.com, and you can work through all of the details! Note we will be monitoring to see whether there is a cancellation due to rain. If there is, the event will be rescheduled for Sunday, March 30. Our next service project is Saturday, April 5. We will be participating in the Kenilworth Gardens Aquatic Cleanup and doing a number of tasks including planting native plants and picking up trash in the area.
