4th Tuesday at Peckham with Gourmet Gone Wild!

Please join us for our monthly "4^th Tuesday Networking Night" on May 28^th from 6:00-8:00 on Peckham's rooftop deck. Peckham, Inc., a nonprofit community vocational rehabilitation organization, is a unique business and human services agency that values quality, diversity and performance. Their mission is to provide a wide range of opportunities to maximize human potential for persons with disabilities who are striving for greater independence and self-sufficiency. They are excited to show GRC their LEED Certified, sustainable building and their huge new art installation, Art@Work.

We are fortunate enough to have the event catered by Gourmet Gone Wild! Gourmet Gone Wild events introduce the concept of conservation to young, urban foodies (that’s you) already interested in “locavore” eating and sustainable living by bringing the conservation message to the table, literally. GRC members will have an opportunity to sample professionally prepared wild fish and game harvested in Michigan and paired with local wine and beer, to watch a cooking demonstration, and to learn about the health benefits of eating local and the role hunters and anglers play in conserving our state’s natural resources.

Peckham is located on Capitol City Boulevard, right by the Lansing Airport. Plenty of parking is available on site.
