David Robinson takes us down memory lane to the legendary Manassas Jazz Festival in a multimedia presentation. From 1966 to 1989, the annual Manassas Jazz Festival was a much-anticipated event among Washington-area jazz fans. Held in rural Manassas, Virginia, and produced by Johnson “Fat Cat” McRee (a founder of the Potomac River Jazz Club), the festival brought together swing-era stars and prominent local musicians to play traditional jazz and swing in unpredictable combinations. Trumpeter Dave Robinson, who performed at several of these festivals, will give a multimedia presentation that takes a look back at what once took place, sharing musical highlights. Cornetist/trumpeter/historian/educator Dave Robinson (a charter member and past president of the PRJC) has been a fixture in Washington’s traditional jazz scene for decades. He has performed and toured with the top DC-area traditional and swing bands, including the Storyville Seven (leader), Sheiks of Dixie, Sunshine Skiffle Band, Manassas Festival Jazzers, Pontchartrain Causeway New Orleans Jazz Band, Royal Blue Orchestra, Doc Scantlin's Imperial Palms Orchestra, New Columbia Swing Orchestra, Radio King Orchestra, SingCo Rhythm Orchestra, and Hal's Bayou Jazz Band. Years ago Dave gigged with such swing era veterans as Maxine Sullivan, Billy Butterfield, Steve Jordan, Johnny Blowers, and Bob Haggart. He has performed at the White House, the Capitol, the Kennedy Center, the Smithsonian, New York's Rainbow Room, Preservation Hall, Meyerhoff Symphony Hall, and Blues Alley. Dave has toured the Pacific Northwest with the Boilermakers Jazz Band and has been heard at the Sacramento Jazz Jubilee, on National Public Radio, and in various film soundtracks. Along with Gary, Dave performed at a royal wedding ball in London; the Culinary Olympics in Frankfurt; appeared on-camera in NBC-TV's hit show "The West Wing"; was a finalist in the State Department's national Jazz Ambassadors competition; and was an Artist-in-Residence at the Kennedy Center’s Millennium Stage. Dave was Adjunct Professor of Music at George Mason University, where he directed the Mason Traditional Jazz Ensemble. Since 1988, Dave has directed the award-winning Capital Focus Jazz Band youth ensemble, which has performed across the U.S. and in Canada, France, England, Scotland, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Spain, and the Caribbean. He is the founder of the Traditional Jazz Educators Network, is Past President of the American Federation of Jazz Societies, the Potomac River Jazz Club, and The Mainstay music venue, and has produced the Smithsonian's Jazz Concert Series. Dave helped to launch the Traditional Jazz Youth Band Festival in Sacramento, where he served annually as clinician, lecturer and adjudicator, and he also has served on the faculties of the STJS Trad Jazz Youth Camp in the Sierra Nevada mountains, the National Jazz Workshop at Shenandoah University, and Traditions Week at McDaniel College, as well as on the mentor teams of the Jazz Education Network and the National Association for Music Education. He has also served as a jazz instructor at Washington College, and has lectured and conducted jazz workshops extensively across the country. Dave hosted "The French Quarter" on Sirius XM Satellite Radio for three years, drawn from his huge archive of trad jazz recordings, and currently hosts "Jazz Gumbo" on WKHS-FM. He is the author and producer of the nationally-acclaimed Traditional Jazz Curriculum Kit, published in partnership with the Jazz Education Network (JEN), the Smithsonian, the National Endowment for the Arts, and various foundations. Dave has just been named for a Jazz Hero Award by the Jazz Journalists Association. Our Zoom Jazz Talks are always FREE to the public, but we greatly appreciate any donations made toward the program.

ABOUT THE EVENT As you all remember well, this event used to bring out hundreds of people every week.

We have super limited spots and advance ticket purchase is required.

That is why we came up with the FRIENDING part. We have a lot in common :- We speak different languages, we represent different cultures, we lived/travelled to different countries, we appreciate different accents, we are internationally minded. HOW IT WORKS : We will try to assign tables for each represented languages and will direct attendees to their respective tables accordingly. All languages are welcome! However we don't guarantee the availability of a partner in that particular language, you would like to exchange. After the formal session, we will rotate attendees from table to table. So that everyone meets everyone. During this session, we use our Lingua Franca, i.e, English. You would get to meet your future friends/acquaintances/buddies/pals /partner-in-crimes or may be more:) To hang out/go out or do things together, like Biking, Hiking, Skiing, Traveling,.....etc. Also, this is an ideal event if you are new in town or not!

If you don't speak the other person's required language, LEAVE THEM ALONE. 5. Rude or aggressive members are removed from the group at an organizers discretion. 6. This is a face-to-face language exchange event. DO NOT try to arrange an online meeting, by using the comment box or direct message. 7.

**Systems Systems Systems: How to Start Your REI Business the Clean Way** [SIGN UP HERE](https://link.elitereimm.com/widget/form/QdRSXWfgn6Uh0zkSDYXa?am_id=debbie5641) Most newer real estate investors start by chasing deals. That makes sense. Deals are exciting. Deals create opportunity. Deals are where the money appears to be. But here is the problem: if you do not build clean business systems early, your real estate investing business can quickly become scattered. * You start losing track of properties. * You forget follow-ups. * You do not know which lenders you talked to. * You cannot remember which buyers, partners, agents, or contractors are actually worth staying connected with. * Your notes, documents, tasks, and next steps end up spread across texts, emails, notebooks, spreadsheets, and random apps. That is not how a real business should operate. *Systems Systems Systems: How to Start Your REI Business the Clean Way* is a 2-hour Monday Night preview event built for newer and growing real estate investors who want to treat investing like a real business from the beginning. This session will give you a simple framework for the 5 core systems every investor should understand and start building. **What We'll Cover** **1\. Deal Systems** How to organize leads, properties, offers, follow-ups, and next steps so you are not relying on memory or scattered notes. **2\. Capital Systems** How to start organizing your lender relationships, private money conversations, funding options, and fundability process. **3\. Buyers / Partners Systems** How to keep track of buyers, JV partners, referral sources, agents, and other people who may help you move deals forward. **4\. Vendor Systems** How to build and manage your contractor, inspector, lender, insurance, title, bookkeeping, and professional network before you desperately need them. **5\. Business Admin Systems** How to keep your CRM, calendar, documents, tasks, communication, bookkeeping, and follow-up from turning into a mess. **This Is a Preview Session** This Monday Night event is not designed to overwhelm you with every tool, spreadsheet, or document. The goal is to help you understand the structure first. Then, in our deeper Saturday workshop, we will show more of the actual working tools, spreadsheets, checklists, and collateral used inside our coaching programs. Monday is about understanding the framework. Saturday is where we go deeper into the tools. **Who This Is For** This event is for you if: * You are newer to real estate investing and want to start the right way. * You have been learning for a while but feel scattered. * You want to find deals, raise capital, build relationships, and work with vendors more professionally. * You are trying to build a real investing business, not just randomly chase opportunities. * You know you need better organization but are not sure where to start. * You are interested in building better business habits around your real estate investing activity. **Who This Is Not For** This is probably not for you if you are looking for hype, shortcuts, or a magic button. Real estate investing is a real business. That means deals matter, but so do systems, follow-up, relationships, documentation, communication, and execution. **Main Takeaway** By the end of this session, you should have a clearer understanding of the 5 systems every real estate investor needs to start building.

Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs. In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling. The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options. **YouTube Link** TBD
