Speech and Testimony
County Executive Leggett’s Remarks at the Strathmore Gala
Music Center at Strathmore
5301 Tuckerman Lane, North Bethesda, MD
As prepared
Good evening!
One of my proudest accomplishments has been to help Strathmore grow into a magnificent treasure of Montgomery County.
Strathmore brings us together as a community by celebrating our vast diversity and rich cultures.
This amazing venue enlivens and enlightens 30,000 children each year, regardless of socioeconomic status or geographic location.
Strathmore has become one of our state's best-known attractions and regularly draws truly world-class talent such as Tony Bennett.
And with the new East County initiative, Strathmore is spreading its wings to touch all of Montgomery County's citizens, wherever they live.
Thank you for letting my wife and I take part in this wonderful event!
