Our tour guide and fellow ASN member, Dennis Gallagher, will also show us three unique churches there: St. Joseph Polish Catholic Church, Holy Rosary Church, and Holy Transfiguration of Christ Eastern Orthodox Church, each which offers a unique cultural experience.  The cost is $5.00 per person.  Please wear comfortable shoes and RSVP to Brent Werner at the contact information below my May 1, 2017.

Born in 1950 in Vermont, Williams was the chief strategist of the International Campaign to Ban Landmines, which formally launched in October, 1992. The campaign sought to end the use, production, trade, and stockpiling of landmines. Williams convinced more than 1,000 NGOs from over 60 countries to support the campaign. In 1996, the Canadian government drafted an international treaty banning landmines. In December 1997, the treaty was signed by 122 countries.  To date, more than 150 countries have signed the landmine ban treaty. Williams continues to work on the eradication of weapons such as cluster munitions and killer robots. Williams joined her sister Nobel Peace Laureates to form the Nobel Women’s Initiative, to bring attention to women and children’s rights around the world.  There will be reserved seating for ASN Members in attendance. Please RSVP to Brent Werner at the contact information below by Monday, March 13, 2017.

Celebrate ASN Month Denver Challenge

Month of March 2017

In celebration of ΑΣΝ month, the Denver ΑΣΝ Alumni Club is challenging each member to 31-days of service. In the simplest of terms, we are asking interested members to record, for the month of March, their daily service activities. At the end of the month, we ask that you provide to our Service Chair a list of the various activities you engaged in so that we can share our efforts with the National AΣN organization. We also want to celebrate the efforts of our members by hosting a Happy Hour event.   If you are interested in taking on the AΣN Month Denver Challenge, please contact Service Chair Carolyn at the information below.
