Dear Arthur,
Initial reaction to our new newsletter format and
content has been very positive. We appreciate your
feedback and welcome any and all suggestions for
further improvement. We are committed to giving you
as much information relevant to global issues and our
Model U.N. program as possible.
In addition to reading our newsletters, you may also
want to visit our
web site by clicking here. We have a good deal of
current information, and during this summer we will be
working on building up our archives from previous years.
We need folks to preview the new Gateway M.U.N. video...
What started out as a small account of our Conference
on the U.N. Charter last February has turned into a
seven-minute video of the entire Gateway Model U.N.
program. We think that this will be extremely helpful to
students and teachers alike in the Fall. We now have a
final draft of the piece; all that is missing is some
valuable critiquing by interested viewers.
We are planning to have two showings of the video for
students, teachers, and others. We want your honest
feedback so that we can make any necessary changes
prior to the Fall.
The two viewings will be at Crossroads School, 500
DeBaliviere, in St. Louis
click here map The dates and times are:
This Friday, June 14, 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM
This Saturday, June 15, 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM
If you are interested in attending, we would appreciate
it if you call or E-Mail us in advance. However, this is
not necessary.

Tour of G.M. Plant will be first Summer Activity of 2002 |
|
During the summer months, we try to provide a series
of special field trips that are "somewhat educational"
and also fun. The first one that we will have this year
is a tour of the General Motors plant in Wentzville,
Missouri (St. Charles County). The tour will be on
Tuesday, June 25, from 9:00 AM - 10:15 AM.
Because so many interested students and teachers live
throughout the St. Louis metropolitan area, we will
have two pick-up and return points for the bus to take
us to the plant. The first will be at Crossroads School,
500
DeBaliviere, in St. Louis

The second will be at the St. Louis County Library,
1640 So. Lindbergh (63131) -- east side of Lindbergh,
just south of Clayton Road.

Pick-up at Crossroads will be at 7:45 AM; at the
County Library at 8:10 AM. Return to the Library will
be by 11:30 AM and to Crossroads by 12:00 Noon.
During the tour, we will be on a tram and travel about
the plant to see how G.M. is using modern technology
in the auto industry. There will be time for questions
and answers. If you are interested in going, please E-
Mail us and let us know at which of the two pick-up
spots we should expect you.
