The difference in expectations between high school and college can be a shock. You've probably been told to "study hard". But have you been taught to "study correctly"?
When studying, anyone can reach a certain point and get "stuck". Or even come to a point where you realize that you have no idea what you've read. When this happens you've encountered a barrier. Attend this live, interactive workshop to learn how to recognize study barriers and overcome them. If you choose, you'll even be able to help someone else do the same.
You'll also learn to use your analytical and creative mind(s) to memorize information faster.
If you are a student, parent, educator, or presenter and want to be able to learn faster and help others do the same, don't miss this event.
You will have the skills to learn any subject you choose. Once you've practiced the steps to help someone else, you'll be able to use your skills to help children, students, friends and family academically and with any information (business, legal, medical) that affects their lives.

Join us at Gunston Hall as we commemorate the 248th anniversary of the 1776 Virginia Declaration of Rights. In writing this document, George Mason took some of the first steps in American history to make this country and the world a better place. They were not perfect steps. Mason owned slaves his entire life and the rights in the Declaration applied to a specific segment of society. Countless people have since worked to make the ideals of the Declaration a reality for everyone.
This program will happen rain or shine. In the event of rain, some activities may move indoors. 

This program is complimentary for all attendees. Some experiences will require a complimentary, timed ticket which may be picked up the day of the event.

From Campfire Dreams to Cannabis Pioneers: Peake ReLeaf Reflects on Six Years of Innovation, Community, and Award-Winning Service
ROCKVILLE, MARYLAND, UNITED STATES, May 7, 2024 -&nbsp;As <a href="http://peakereleaf.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Peake ReLeaf</a> celebrates its sixth anniversary this year, we reflect on a journey that began with a simple campfire conversation among three lifelong friends and has grown into an award-winning leader in Maryland's cannabis industry. Founded on the pillars of community, innovation, and trust, Peake ReLeaf has not only expanded its operations but has also profoundly impacted the lives of countless Maryland residents through high-quality medical and adult-use cannabis products. Highlighting Ownership and Commitment to Social Equity: Peake ReLeaf proudly stands as a beacon of progress in the industry, being part female and minority-owned. Our commitment extends beyond our products; we champion social equity through active participation in initiatives and partnerships with organizations dedicated to justice and inclusivity in cannabis. Collaborations with The Last Prisoner Project, Minority Cannabis Business Association, Minorities for Medical Marijuana, Maryland NORML, project DREAM, The Cannabis Patient Advocacy Association (Holistic Analytics), Project Clean Slate, and more underscore our dedication to uplifting underrepresented communities and reforming cannabis laws. Product Features and Highlights - Award-Winning Service: Voted #1 Dispensary in Southern Montgomery County at the 2023 Maryland Cannabis Awards, Peake ReLeaf stands as a testament to excellent customer service and community engagement. - Innovative Growth: 2024 marked the opening of our new adult use sales floor, showcasing our commitment to evolving with our community's needs and expanding access to premier cannabis products. - Educational Leadership: Featured in major publications such as Bethesda Magazine and The Washington Post, our founders have been recognized for their pioneering spirit and contributions to cannabis education and policy discussions. - Community Roots: Born from the vision of Maryland natives, our growth is intertwined with local values and the collective efforts of a diverse and passionate team dedicated to quality and transparency. - Future Expansion: Looking forward, Peake ReLeaf is exploring opportunities for expansion to bring our trusted, top-notch service and product lineup to a broader audience. &ldquo;Reflecting on the past six years, I am profoundly moved by the journey Peake ReLeaf has embarked upon, from a dream forged by friends to becoming a cornerstone of our community. This anniversary isn't just a celebration of our growth or the milestones we've achieved; it's a celebration of our roots and the trust bestowed upon us by every customer who walks through our doors. As we look ahead, our commitment to innovation, excellence, and community wellness remains steadfast. Here&rsquo;s to many more years of growth, discovery, and serving the people of Maryland with the best the cannabis industry has to offer." - Warren Lemley, President, Peake ReLeaf About Peake ReLeaf: Peake ReLeaf is more than just a dispensary. It's a place where passion for cannabis and community wellness come together, driven by a founding team of Maryland natives who have turned their vision into a beacon for quality and service in the cannabis industry.
