No Meeting Because of Sept.

meeting during September was made after consideration
of the one-year anniversary of the terror attacks on
the World Trade Center and Pentagon on September 11,
2001. Awake In Philly's normal meeting date is the second
Wednesday of the month, which happens to fall on September
11 this year.
