CRSTE members celebrated the launch of CRSTE at the Historical Society of Washington DC on June 30th from 6:30 - 8:30 PM! For more than a century, The Historical Society of Washington, D.C. has been a respected and valued city institution. It is a dynamic and professional organization with a daring vision for the future not only for the Historical Society but also for the exciting city it calls home - the very same goals and aspirations to which CRSTE aspires! For these reasons, CRSTE chose to host its celebration at this most appropriate impressive and historical setting.
The reception offered all NECC attendees a chance to meet with CRSTE supporters from around the mid-Atlantic region: the District of Columbia, Delaware, Maryland, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Virginia and West Virginia while enjoying fresh hors d'oeuvres, cold drinks and live music. Guests also enjoyed entrance into two exquisite exhibits: The Quilts for Obama and Lily Spandorf's collection of Washington Nevermore. CRSTE buttons and name badge ribbons abounded in support of this newly formed regional organization!
The celebration kicked-off after the conclusion of the CRSTE Meeting at NECC at the Washington Convention Center. Many thanks to Smart Technologies as our first Platinum sponsor!
