The Cuban participants are: Olga Rosa Gomez Cortes - General Secretary of Cultural Workers and deputy of the National Assembly of the Peoples Power. Leonel Gonzalez Gonzalez - Deputy for the National Assembly of the Peoples Power and a member of their commission of Foreign Relations. Manuel Montero Bistilleiro - Secretary of the Union Bureau of National Sports of Industry Workers Union and responsible for the relations with the Americas of the International Relations Dept. of the CTC. Please join us in welcoming this delegation to DC. We will have a reception from 7:30pm to 8:00pm, with food, drinks and ca$h bar, followed by short presentations from the delegation, and Question and Answer period.
