Happy July Postdocs!

Come spend a day at the beach with your colleagues, friends, and families! We're planning to visit Carson Beach next Saturday, July 18, from 10-6pm. The PDA Get Out Committee and MIT Spouses and Partners are bringing beach games and providing light snacks and drinks. We need you to bring your smiles and beach gear. Please RSVP here<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1aGIfuot_DSbkV4jnTi8-TjGbVjrwlNn8-SAhUMsI7ag/viewform?usp=send_form> so that we know how much space to reserve.

We'd also like you to save the date for our annual PDA BBQ on the evening of August 14. Last year, half of the entire MIT Postdoc body showed up for this event, and we hope to make it better than ever this year! On that note, please use this form<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1pKouyddz1B-9DDI3W8K7Dpz3BzGmCcgiFI--ZuHn6A0/viewform?usp=send_form> to sign up as a volunteer.
