Freshers Welcome
Venue: Tower Road Branch Library (meeting room) 3020 SW 75th Street, Gainesville, FL 32608
GNVBNG welcomes you all to the first event of the fall: our Freshers Welcome! This is the event where we formally welcome new members to the community.
If you know Bengalis — from both the Ganga and Padma sides, and from anywhere in the world — who have moved to Gainesville recently, please spread the word. New students at UF or Santa Fe College in particular: please let them know!
We'd also like to take this opportunity to ask everyone to encourage any Bengalis interested in joining the community to join our WhatsApp group - just send us a message in the Contact Us portion of the website. Most of our activities are announced there, so it will be helpful for everyone to be part of the group. We'll soon start sharing information about the upcoming Durga Puja there, and we need everyone's help spreading the word.
Hope to see you all on Sunday, September 13!
