8^th Annual

Picnic in the Park Symposium

We look forward to our 8^th annual “Picnic in the Park Symposium.” We’ll be there, rain or shine, to meet under the Chippewa Shelter in Settler’s Cabin Park. Join us to share a buffet lunch and discuss various investing strategies in a relaxed, informal social environment.

We’ll structure this enjoyable event with the usual “roundtable discussions” on popular investing topics led by our Chapter members. If you would like to lead a discussion on a topic of interest to you, please email Roy Taylor or Jim Guzzo to offer your services.

Tickets will be handed out to all attendees; if you’re one of the lucky ones, you might go home with a door prize. We look forward to seeing all of our old friends again and hope that some new friends will join us for the first time this summer. It’s fun and it’s free!

Larry Coudriet, President

Fun, food, investment education! Come party with fellow investors of the Pittsburgh AAII Chapter at our 8^th annual “Picnic in the Park” symposium. This FREE event offers education for individual investors in a casual outdoor setting and provides a great opportunity to swap ideas and experiences with like-minded friends, old and new.

After lunch, discussion leaders will guide conversation on topics such as:  the coming crash, value investing, options, investing for income, and risk management. Gift certificates and other prizes will go to lucky raffle winners.

We invite all adult members of the Cleveland chapters to join us. Spouses and guests are welcome, too (sorry, no children, please).
