Ellery Schempp VA/DC Tour! (March 29 - April 6)

Ellery Schempp will be participating in a VA/DC Tour from March 28th to April 6th thanks to support from the Freedom From Religion Foundation and the Secular Student Alliance.  Ellery Schempp was the primary student involved in the landmark 1963 Supreme Court Case of Abington School District v. Schempp which declared public school-sanction Bible reading unconstitutional.  He'll be visiting several colleges and a few local organizations. 

We're still busy working on final details for the specific events, but here's a preliminary agenda:

SATURDAY, March 28
***Central Virginia Community College (CVCC)***

MONDAY, March 30
***Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU)***

TUESDAY, March 31
***College of William & Mary***

WEDNESDAY, April 1
***American University***

THURSDAY, April 2
*** George Mason University (GMU)***

Monday, April 6
***The George Washington University***

 

Mark Your Calendars!

 The final agenda will be out on February 28th.
