Hello, EI Youth and Friends,

Greetings --

Jes and I hope you are well.

There is a change in the "Movie Day" for the immigrant youth (again)! I am sorry. I just found out early this week that I have been accepted into a great leadership program for immigrant professionals on March 8th and 9th! I want to use that leadership training experience to share with the immigrant youth leadership camp from July 17th to the 22nd.

Hence, I have to change the "Movie Day" to the following Saturday, March 15th. Hence, on March 15th, a Saturday, the "Movie Day" will be at Cuong and Jesecca's townhouse at 12 pm in Alexandria, VA.

We will provide the popcorn, beverages, pizzas, movies, etc. on March 15th. We look forward to seeing you all soon! Thanks for your understanding and for being flexible.

Have a wonderful day!

Warmest regards,

Cuong and Jesecca
