Consumer Health Group News Forum: Fw: July 2007 calendar; RE: Wash Nationals Sat. July 7, 07, at 7:05 pm

July calendar in PDF. A run down of events (highlights) will arrive in a few
days. Meanwhile, here's a one page calendar for this month.

Two highlights that you should know about right now:

1. We still have tickets left for the Washington Nationals game on Sat. July
7 at 7 pm, scroll down for old email. You must become a member of SSDIC
(free application/membership) in order to get a ticket, and they will only
be available for pick up on Sat. July 7, between 1 and 5 pm. Then, a group
of us will take the metro down to RFK Stadium Armory.

2. Donna Lewis, an EEO attorney, will conduct a workshop on Sat. July 21, at
2pm, on "Whether or not to disclose mental illness in the workplace." She
held a very successful workshop in March, sponsored by NAMI Montgomery
County, and we are thrilled that she is willing to hold one here at the drop
in! Please RSVP for this event by no later than Thursday July 19, if you
can. Light refreshments will be served.

Cheers,

pm. YOU MUST BECOME A SILVER SPRING DROP IN CENTER MEMBER BEFORE getting a
ticket~ free application included, or go online, see signature line. We only
have 20 tickets, 6 people have signed up already but some often drop off at
last minute, so we will have a waitlist. You must pick up ticket from here

Silver Spring Drop-In Center presents Washington Nationals vs. Milwaukee

The Washington Nationals have been very kind to donate 20 tickets to us
again this year.

The first 14 - 15 people who sign up, who are either already SSDIC members
or who will fill out a free SSDIC member application, and can come and pick
up their tickets here on the same day of the game, will have a chance to
attend the game. Others can be placed on a waitlist, as we have 20 tickets,
and plans sometimes change between now and next Saturday.

Bring your own $ for transportation (RFK metro, we will be leaving the
center around 5:15 pm). Please note that the food costs are pretty high, and
expect to pay at least $8 for a hotdog! For information on the game, visit
