The SCC is pleased to sponsor the 20th annual SI Staff Picnic, to be held in Washington, D.C. on Tuesday, Oct. 3, from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. The event is open to all staff, badged volunteers, fellows, and interns.

Entertainment is a key component to the event, and the picnic is a great way to show your colleagues a side of you they might not know.

Professional musicians and groups with Smithsonian roots, semi-pros, and other talented individuals are invited to apply. Dance acts are also welcome. Interested parties should submit an audition sample by CD, DVD or URL to Charlie Weber at weberc@si.edu or MRC 520. Submissions are due no later than the close of business on Thursday, August 31.

For questions about entertainment, please email Charlie Weber at weberc@si.edu.

See you on the Mall! Stay tuned for further announcements on programming and schedules.

Office Managers: some of your staff may not have regular access to the SI email system. Please post this notice in a prime location for all to see.
