     Please accept this invitation to attend the 2020 MEEOA TRIO and GearUp Advocacy event on Tuesday March 10, 2020 at the State House in Augusta. 

 

     At this time, we have reserved space from 8:00 am-12:00pm for the event. We have 16 tables with 36 chairs available for our use. There will be light refreshments served as well. 

 

     We recommend ALL groups arrive no later than 7:55 a.m. as everyone who enters the State House is subject to safety screening and bag checks. This process could take upwards of 20 minutes. ***For those traveling with art supplies, scissors are NOT allowed into the State House Building.***

***Directions to the State House can be found on this link http://www.maine.gov/legis/house/activity/directions_sh.htm

 

 

***Note on parking for this event:  

Parking at the Capitol is challenging, especially on Session days. We recommend you park in the parking garage at the corner ofCapitol and Sewall St. There’s no charge to park in the garage. Allowing 15 to 30 minutes for parking and walking to the State House is strongly advised.

 


Here's to continuing to spread the powerful message about the great college access and success work that is being done in the State of Maine!
