from Friends of McMillan Park: yoga benefit to save McMillan Park

See this message from the Friends of McMillan Park:
Calling all lovers of Bloomingdale, the surrounding neighborhoods, and the District of Columbia at large!


Please join us for a very special yoga fundraiser to save historic McMillan Park on Sunday, December 15, from 2:30pm – 4:30pm at the Bloomingdale Yoga District (1830 First Street NW).
Yoga District’s senior teacher and Bloomingdale lover, Gracy Obuchowicz, will lead a beginner-friendly yoga class with the theme of using yoga to inspire and awaken conscious activism in our communities.
Community leaders Paul Cerruti and Hugh Youngblood will speak and conduct Q&A before and after the class on the following topics:
  • The importance of preserving and restoring McMillan Park as a world-class public place to serve all DC residents and visitors
  • Attracting creative and innovative local business to the park
  • What we can do as a community to save this marvelous, unique site.
All levels of yoga are welcome. The suggested donation is $20. All proceeds benefit the Save McMillan Park Legal Fund. We will also have Save McMillan Park t-shirts, holiday cards, and other merchandise available for purchase.
