 NMRT Field Trip 

The NMRT Field Trip will be held on Saturday, June 24 from 6-9pm. We will meet in Maggie Daley Park on the south end of the BP bridge to enjoy a round of mini golf. This is a great chance to network and socialize with fellow NMRT and ALA members.  General admission tickets for mini golf are $10 and can be purchased at the event. Maggie Daley Park is located at 337 E. Randolph Street.

We hope to see you there!
