Whiterock Library Monday Night Lecture "Freedom Within"

I really enjoyed my first event at the Whiterock library last night. 14 peopled turned up - i was hoping for 40 and expecting 3, so it was great. Two even came from south of the border.

It started with music video, lots of library patrons popped their heads in and none stayed *but* obviously I've picked the right night (library staff told me Monday is the busy night), and right room (on the landing on the way into the library).

Maharaji was incredible - the DVD was from Malaysia with 4000 people in the room and 3,700 of them seeing him live for the first time.

Judith came with refreshments (tea/coffee/cookies) and the AV team was there with the big screen and other projector. Susan Lee Hem brought the bags with complimentary information for new people (although there were none).

This will change for my next event because of the SANDWICH BOARD which I'm going to leave up all day next time:

Prem Rawat
Public Lecture
Tonight 7:30 pm

Admission by donation

I'll going to design this myself and have it printed up at Staples. Lisa will construct the stand.

I made an announcement saying "If you can make a contribution, it would help us cover the cost of the room" and I collected $75!

I've had a lot of experience putting on events much larger than this one, but I admit I was nervous but through team effort the outcome was wonderful and I think was a great step to having regular Prem Rawat public lectures at the libary.

Yeah! Putting the "rock" back into "Whiterock"!
Best regards,
