What are Rent Parties?
During the Harlem Renaissance in New York City, “rent
parties” were held where neighbors got together, played music and shared food
and drink. A door charge helped the host to pay the rent. Since our rent is
being provided by a generous donor, our version of the “rent party” helps MPRA
with expenses such as supplies or postage for
mailings. The idea is that everyone brings a little food and beverage to share
and we ask a donation of $5.
For those who haven’t attended one of these functions yet,
you’ve missed a fun get together with other folks who care about the rivers and
like to eat! It’s a great way to find out new places to paddle, if any fish are
biting and share ideas about current and future projects.
Ya’ll come!
