March's open discussion led to so many interesting audience suggestions that we're going to follow the same format for April and focus on one area but in greater depth: promoting entrepreneurship in Wilmington.
We are very excited to announce that our April speaker/moderator will be Ryan Venderlic, a WHS regular, originally from West Virginia, who is a proud resident of the neighborhood near St. Hedwig's.
Ryan spent several years in the Peace Corps helping people start businesses in Kenya, and now works for Junior Achievement doing the same throughout the Wilmington area. He'll spend a few minutes sharing his observations on Entrepreneurship promotion as a tool for the city's redevelopment and lead a group discussion.
If you have any experience or thoughts in this area, we want to hear from you!
Nathan Field is a Wilmington native who recently returned to his hometown after a decade in the Middle East, and DC. A history major at UD, and co-founder of the WHS, he hopes to generate renewed civic interest in Wilmington's future through promoting greater understanding of the key issues in the city's history
