We’re just about ready to make some more big announcements — for our silent auction in early summer, for our gear drive in late May & for the big Kahuna, CAMP!

In the meantime, our PR lady Megan has been working overtime: she & Beth just did an interview on G-Town Radio on Sunday (soon to be up in podcast form).

Hi everyone,

Thanks so much for coming to the Girls Rock multimedia extravaganza on Nov. 15th – we had a great turnout at the Painted Bride!  Everyone loved the book-touring ladies from Portland & Oak Oak Okay, and they loved us.

And then, on Saturday, there’s this:

We’re proud to have these amazing bands representing for us, so come on down & represent for your own self!  See you there….

Some things never stop being fun, no matter how old you get.  Things like ice cream parties & singing really loudly to great songs.  That’s why you should stop by a GRP volunteer meet & greet this summer.

We’ll be hanging out at the delicious Franklin Fountain (Market Street between Front & 2nd Streets) on Tuesday June 24th, at 6:30 PM. 

And then we’ll be here:
