From our friends at the UMBC Institute of Politics:
My name is Mileah Kromer, and I'm the Director of the UMBC Institute of Politics. I'm reaching out to invite you to an upcoming event in our Politics Everywhere series.
Investments in parks, recreation, and public lands are investments in public health! So, I hope you can join the UMBC Institute of Politics for Politics Everywhere: Parks, Recreation, and Public Lands. This event features a keynote address by the Maryland Department of Natural Resources Secretary, Josh Kurtz, and a panel discussion with state and local leaders in parks and recreation, including Angela Crenshaw. (Crenshaw is the first Black woman to serve as Director of the Maryland Park Service, and was recently named as one of USA Today's Women of the Year.) The event will focus on the big questions about access, equity, and expansion, as well as daily operations, budgetary issues, and long-term planning.
The event is free and open to the public, but an RSVP is required. Click here to RSVP.
- Date: Wednesday, April 29
- Time: 7:00 to 8:45 pm
- Location: Fine Arts Recital Hall
I hope to see you there! Bring a friend!
Thanks,
Dr. Mileah Kromer
Director, UMBC Institute of Politics
