Denver Mayor Michael Hancock will once again be sharing the stage with a Bush-era official — though, this time, not with Dubya himself. Hancock will be joining former Secretary of Homeland Security Michael Chertoff this evening for the ribbon-cutting of a new exhibit at Larry Mizel’s Counterterrorism Education Learning Lab’s (CELL) museum.
From Hancock’s office:
DENVER – The Honorable Michael Chertoff, former Secretary of Homeland Security will join Mayor Michael B. Hancock, Larry A. Mizel and more than 700 participants in celebrating the opening of the Counterterrorism Education Learning Lab’s (CELL) new exhibit on July 12, 2012.
In honor of the lives lost on 9-11, the CELL worked diligently to bring a girder from one of the fallen World Trade Center towers to Colorado. This memorial is one of the seventeen sections within this unique exhibit that teaches visitors about terrorism awareness and prevention. To learn more, visit www.theCELL.org.
WHO: The Honorable Michael Chertoff, Secretary of Homeland Security from 2005 to 2009, and Co-Hosts Mayor Michael B. Hancock and Larry A. Mizel.
WHAT: Grand Exhibit Opening and Speaker Series Program: Terrorism in Our Times: Emerging Threats
The Speaker Series Program will feature former Sec. Chertoff (bio upon request).
The key note speech, entitled Terrorism in Our Times: Emerging Threats, will address new global security concerns, national security strategy and public-private partnerships that can enhance public safety (synopsis available upon request).
WHEN: Thursday, July 12, 2012
WHERE: 5:00 p.m. – Exhibit Tour at the CELL, 99 W. 12th Ave.
6:30 p.m. – Speaker Series Program
The Denver Art Museum – North Building
No word if Bush’s disastrous FEMA director, and now NewsRadio 850 KOA talking head, Michael “Brownie” Brown will also be in attendance. Hopefully not: three high-profile Michaels at any event is probably too many.
Just imagine the small talk. “Hey Michael, you’re doing great stuff with the City of Denver.” “Thanks, Michael, we’re proud to have installed some of your full body scanners at DIA. Oh, and Michael, how are you liking Denver? Not many Arabian horses around here, I bet!” “Sadly no, Michael, but at least I’m not being blamed for all the fires.”
