WABA Quick Release

Archive for October 19th, 2011

CFC #93587;  DC One Fund: #8708

As local employee giving programs come into full swing, please remember that every day WABA is in the streets, on the trails, at the public meetings, and in the halls of government working to create better, safer conditions for you and your loved ones who choose to travel by bicycle.

We appreciate your contributions to fund our operations and, specifically, to enable many of our programmatic activities in underserved communities where membership support alone cannot sustain important programming.

Please remember WABA in your employee giving.  And if you do not participate in an employee giving program, you can contribute through this link.

Thank you for your support!

In preparation for the November 2nd hearing before the DC Council’s Committee on the Judiciary on Bicycle Enforcement and the Assault of Bicyclists Prevention Act of 2011, WABA is hosting two open-house sessions in which those planning to testify can get assistance in drafting their testimony.  We will discuss the topics and answer questions, and we can help with tips for communicating clearly, staying within time limits, and generally making the most of your time before the Committee.

There will be a brief group discussion at each session, but participants are welcome to come and go anytime and are free to come discuss testimony without being present for the group discusion.

Open House #1: Thursday, October 27th, 3pm-7:30pm.  Group discussion at 6:30.

Open House #2: Monday, October 31, 10am-5pm.  Group discussion at noon.

Both sessions will be held at the WABA office at 2599 Ontario Rd., NW.
