Hi Ram Gurung

 

I’m writing to ask if you would consider putting together a short (15 min) performance Wednesday, May 15^th (4-4:30P) and how much would you charge? Please give me a call as soon as possible to discuss. 404.562.3470

 

I’m in charge of the entertainment portion of Peace Corps’ largest event in the U.S. It will be hosted by the Carter Center and several people will be there including President Carter, Mayor Reed, Peace Corps Director and other noted political officials and local celebrities.

 

We are expecting about 400 people and the focus of the event is to promote world peace and friendship and what Peace Corps is doing around the world. I think it would be a great opportunity for BAG and I would like to add your group to the list of possible performers. Please let me know if you think this would be possible and I’d also like to get your quote.

 

In the past we’ve had groups like Ballethnic, Bhutanese Children’s Choir, Burundi Drummers Corps, so as you can see we are always trying to identify rich cultural performances. Please let me know if the group would be available and we can talk more about details.

 

Event info|

 

The award was established in 1986 in Atlanta as a biennial event. It is the largest domestic Peace Corps commemoration and attracts a diverse audience of over 400 participants from around the United States. Hosted by the Carter Center, the 2013 event is scheduled for May 15th, and will emphasize the extraordinary impact age 50+ Peace Corps Volunteers have made around the globe since 1961. In addition to acknowledging Miss Lillian and the 2013 award recipient, President Carter will commemorate the over 210,000 American citizens who have dedicated themselves since 1961 to promoting the organization’s mission of world peace and friendship.

 

Thank you,
