SUMMARY:Financing Our Future\: How to keep our city bright within a tight budget
DESCRIPTION:It’s not news that Minnesota’s cities and counties are under pressure to make ends meet. Meanwhile\, assistance from the state is melting like snow on a 60-degree day.

The program will start at 7\:00 pm\, with a social period beforehand starting at 6\:30.
 Presenters include Kathleen McBride\, Finance Director\, City of Northfield\, Debby McNeil\, Minnesota LWV Action Committee member who covers state financing\, and Laura Wang\, Legislative Coordinator for Minnesota LWV.

SUMMARY:Some of Hip Hop’s Best B-boys to Battle It Out at Carleton College
DESCRIPTION:Some of the hip hop world’s best b-boys (or “break-boys”) will take to the floor in a not-to-be-missed battle on Friday\, Oct. 1\, beginning at 7 p.m.\, in the Carleton College Recreation Center. The battle – a competition between a half dozen “crews” from the Twin Cities\, Carleton and Northfield – will be judged by three world-class b-boys hailing from New York City\: Kid Glyde\, Whorah\, and Gravity. Featuring fancy footwork\, acrobatic style\, and back-beats provided by Chicago-based DJ Lester Burnem\, this event is free and open to all ages.
 All three master b-boys are members of the prize-winning break-boy crew\, the Dynamic Rockers. Established in 1979\, the Dynamic Rockers\, whose members mostly hail from Queens and Long Island\, New York\, are responsible for pioneering the art of b-boying\, also known as “breakdancing.” The Dynamic’s original members brought “breakin’” into national and international focus in 1981 with a legendary battle with their biggest rivals at the time\, the Rock Steady Crew\, as part of New York’s Lincoln Center Outdoors Program. The event was covered by National Geographic\, The New York Times\, and The Village Voice—later gaining the crew worldwide exposure and a feature in the film\, “The Last Dragon.”
