SurveyLA Speakers Bureau Training Dates in January

SurveyLA is gearing up for the Year Two Surveys, and they need your help to get the word out! Join the Speakers Bureau today.

Speakers Bureau members share the details of SurveyLA at community events and meetings, such as those for local Neighborhood Councils or historical societies. If you are interested in joining the Speakers Bureau, you should be willing to attend community meetings on weeknights and/or weekends approximately once a month throughout 2011. You will be provided with materials and a script; presentations can last anywhere from 10-45 minutes.

If you'd like to join, you must attend a two-part training session on January 8 and January 22 from 10:00am to 1:00pm each day at the Will and Ariel Durant Branch Library at 7140 West Sunset Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA 90046. Previous experience in public speaking is not needed, but an interest in historic preservation or the history of Los Angeles is desired.

If you're interested, please register for the training sessions by emailing Bryan Fahrbach at bryan@historicla.com.
