| Aug 2 - Aug 5 Newsies |
| "Stop the presses!" Summer Lyric Theatre at Tulane will conclude its 51st season with the regional theatre premiere of Disney’s smash hit NEWSIES. Based on the real-life Newsboy Strike of 1899, NEWSIES tells the story of Jack Kelly, a rebellious newsboy who dreams of a life away from the big city. After publishing giant Joseph Pulitzer raises newspaper prices at the newsboys’ expense, Kelly and his fellow newsies take action. With help from a beautiful female reporter, all of New York City soon recognizes the power of “the little man.” This high-energy, dance-infused show features a Tony Award-winning score by the prolific Alan Menken (Beauty & the Beast, Aladin, The Little Mermaid) and Jack Feldman, book by Harvey Fierstein (La Cage aux Folles, Kinky Boots) and is directed and choreographed by Diane Lala. |

| Aug 11 InspireNOLA Back to School Backpack Giveaway |
| High Level Speech & Hearing Center CEO Dr. Lana Joseph is partnering with InspireNOLA for the “InspireNOLA Back to School Backpack Giveaway” event, providing free preliminary speech and hearing screenings and treatment for attendees. The community-wide event will feature free school supplies and a brand new backpack available for families enrolled in InspireNOLA Charter Schools as well as students enrolled in New Orleans public schools. An estimated 40 million Americans have trouble speaking or hearing due to a communication disorder. Millions more family members and friends are also impacted. Here in New Orleans, there are parents reading this whose children are struggling to speak or understand language; spouses living with partners whose hearing is deteriorating; and co-workers, neighbors and others who see someone who needs help but don’t know what to do. High Level Speech and Hearing Center offers tools to change that through a team of seven speech pathologists and audiologists, currently ranked among the top eight in New Orleans in 2018. High Level Speech and Hearing partners with schools, daycare centers, and nursing homes, bringing screenings to those who need them most. This is a free community event open to all families enrolled in InspireNOLA Charter Schools as well as students enrolled in New Orleans public schools. Supplies will be given out on a first come, first served basis. Free speech and hearing screening will be available throughout the duration of the event. |

| Aug 16 Muffins and Metrics: Marketing Meetup |
If your job, passion or business involves setting up, managing or interpreting web analytics, Google analytics, and marketing metrics, this month’s meetup is for you!
This meetup is designed to bring a variety of business analytics users (Marketing, Sales, Consultants, Webmasters, Bloggers, Entrepreneurs, Managers) into the same room to share information and learn more from each other about the data available to all of us and howe we are using them in different ways as marketers, managers, sales and business owners.
Guided discussion of the most powerful, free tool to track, analyze and report your web site’s data. According to the HubSpot’s State of Inbound report, 63% of marketers stated that their top challenge was generating traffic and leads, followed closely by proving the ROI of marketing activities. These two things are not mutually exclusive, and with tools like Google Analytics (GA) at your disposal, the only limitation is how you are using them.
Topics that are fair game for discussion:
-
General website traffic, Google Analytics, email marketing, podcasting, mobile applications, social media, business intelligence tools, ppc campaign data, webmaster tools, retargeting campaigns, and other traditional or digital sales or marketing efforts.
-
Tracking the untrackable
-
Other data sources and combining information
-
Stories told by the data?
-
Spotting anomalies (jumps or dips in traffic, why, what to look for)
-
What to track and why
What you should bring:
Who Should Attend: Marketers, Product Managers, Brand Managers, Bloggers, Business Owners and Webmasters and anyone else who wants to capture, understand and benefit from the increasing amount of valuable web analytics and marketing data capable of being analyzed.

8:00am - 8:15am Coffee, with a side of muffins and networking
