Before there was Harlem... there was U Street.  Washington's "Black Broadway" - where Duke Ellington grew up and was inspired, where musical greats such as Cab Calloway and Dizzy Gillespie played local clubs into the wee hours of the morning, and where movie palaces mingled with pool halls, restaurants and barber shops. Here in the shadow of Howard University, African Americans created a strong community that produced leaders for the city and the nation.

You are cordially invited to a Warm Spirit celebration like no other!!  Here in the MD/DC/VA market, you'll be able to join us on Sunday, July 30th from 6:00-8:00PM for networking (come out and meet the Executives and Emerald Managers who are 'regulars' in the Corporation's Corner Stone Club), we'll have a business opportunity meeting and quick start training.  We'll end the evening with a champagne/sparking water toast to celebrate our BLACK ENTERPRISE Emerging Business of the Year Award and to kick off the week of Conference 2006!
