Eden Prairie Commmunity Education Services, a division of the Eden Prairie School District, sponsors an event each year called the Annual Partnership Breakfast. The purpose of the Annual Partnership Breakfast each year is bring together community leaders to discuss thought provoking topics that are relevant to the life of the community.
This year's Annual Partnership Breakfast is scheduled for Thursday, April 20 from 7:30-9:30 am at St. Andrew's Lutheran Church here in Eden Prairie. The topic of this year's discussion is: A Courageous Conversation on Race. The breakfast event is sponsored (i.e. – paid for) by Community Bank.
The discussion will consider the growing level of diversity of Eden Prairie's residents. What does it mean for a former rural farming community to grow more diverse? What do we need to do to become a more welcoming community? How do we all get along? These are just a few of the questions we'll probably discuss at the breakfast.
The discussion will be led by a panel of Eden Prairie residents that includes: Nanette Missaghi, Harry Moran, Laurie Obiazor, Gail Toatley. Richard Liu, and Abdullahi Hassan.
For more information about the event or to RSVP for it, you can e-mail: dbrockopp@edenpr.org
Thanks to Pastor Rod Anderson for the venue and to Roy Terwilliger for the breakfast. I'll be there.
