This is the kick off event and the first of many events sponsored by the River East Emerging Leaders (R.E.E.L.). Please come out and see what R.E.E.L. is all about. This group is young (or young at heart), fun and dedicated to showing another side of River East - a side often not highlighted in the evening news.
Whether you were born and raised in River East or moved here yesterday we want YOU to come out and have a great time, meet some new friends and just maybe have a mimosa or two! If you don't live in River East but would still like to come out and show your support you are more than welcome to come out. R.E.E.L. is all about building partnerships within and outside of the River East community - together we can make a difference.
R.E.E.L. is also on Facebook - Join today!!
