It was a pleasure to meet you and the members of the Recreation and Cultural Arts Advisory

possibilities of cooperative programs between FlU North Campus and the City of Aventura.
I have enclosed several brochures about the Elders Institute and the classes offered. Would you
please distribute them to the members of the Advisory Board? Please let me know if you would
like to have some more for distribution.
V try truly yours,
