    A little short for what was advertised, but still informative.

    Great exhibit! I discovered many historical facts about Ben Franklin. Although he had no formal education; he founded the University of Pennsylvania, was a prolific writer/publisher, musician,scientist, inventor, statesman, ambassador, entrepreneur, first Postmaster General, abolitionist, librarian(founded the first lending library) founder of the first volunteer fire department in the country and signer of the Declaration of Independence.
    The exhibit ends May 6th; so make sure you make space on your calender to attend this interesting and thought provoking event!

    Hi, I cannot change my RSVP on the site, but I may need to cancel due to work, however, I know this is late notice and I apologize. If anybody can fill the spot, that would be great. If I absolutely cannot cancel, I will be there and will see if i can get a different shift at work. Please let me know. I hope this late notice will not dismiss me from the group for such a late change.

    Thanks, Mary Ann

    Thank you so much.
