The MCFR Student Section is hosting another social event. The two pictures above were taken at our first event last April for you to see the great food, great connections, and great conversation that take place.

The upcoming social event is scheduled for October 19th from 4-6pm. Last year we met on a Wednesday evening on the St. Paul campus. This time around we are having it on a Friday early evening on the U of M's East campus (Peik Hall, Rm 40). Your feedback regarding date, time, place and anything else you can think of regarding the social event is much appreciated. We want the Student Section Social Events to be a place where students in fields related to family want to come to network with other students and professionals in an informal setting; allowing more depth in conversation than conferences typically allow.

One bonus that we have added to the event from last time are the discount cards for becoming an official member of MCFR and for the registration fee to attend the next MCFR conference, which is November 30th. Students already get a reduced rate, but attending this event will save you even more money, plus, you will meet people in October that you will know at the MCFR conference in November

We will be dispersing the Social Event e-mails and flyers in the next couple of weeks. Contact Kristin Schneider or myself (Heather Dubbeldee) with any questions or comments - our contact information is posted on this blog site.

We look forward to connecting with you on October 19th!
