I don't know if anyone saw the article in today's PD about the Cleveland's sister agreement with a City in France called Rouen. But a couple of us(Lakewood is Art Board Members) had the opportunity this week to sit with Yinnick Le Couedic, Executive Director, of the French American Chamber about some possibilities for Lakewood--and if he would present here in Lakewood a short discussion on the history of the French American Chamber in Cleveland and how businesses in Lakewood can explore doing business in France--particularly in the area of Normandy and vice versa. We really started by approaching this from an artists standpoint and quickly saw it blossom into so much more--to include marketing as a small business and artists' designation.

If this topic would be of interest to you, please let me know--and tell me if a morning, afternoon or evening session would be best for you.... of course this would be FREE. You can email me at rkoenigsmark@yahoo.com

if anyone wonders if our only contact was with the French/American Chamber--no--will keep you posted on progress.

Ruthie,
Sounds great! Anytime the week of the 28th during the day. The evenings of the 28th and the 30th I have Indians tickets. Everything else is open for me. The 22nd thru the27th is bad for me.

Sounds good though.

Rhonda
