| Sun, 13 11:00 AM and 1 PM | 2003 Inaugural Skate Followed by Post-Inaugural-Skate Party | led by: WAR |
| The winter is finally gone and it's time to put on those skates! The WAR Inaugural Skate and Party will be on Sunday, April 13. We will meet at the White House at our normal 11:00 time. We'll skate to Hains Point, Eastern Market, and Union Station. We'll arrive at Froggy Bottom at around 1 pm. The pace will be easy, though the skate is more challenging than the Friday route. Once at Froggy, relax and enjoy pizza, beer, and soda. New and renewing members will receive a raffle ticket for skate-related prizes. Admission is $10 for members and $15 for non-members. The party is rain or shine, so if the weather is bad, come and party anyway! | ||

So be there and conquer!Why doesn't anyone Skate in Baltimore? | ||
