Am I correct that the first evening activity will be Winberies on
Thursday, Ed's on Friday, and Ann Sathers on Saturday?
I think the real concern here is that ride to the first activity of the
evening.
Although some of our people are comfortable taking the El/subway, many
are unfamiliar with it and where it goes and a good percentage of our
people may be a bit uneasy taking it under the best of circumstances.
(The up-out-around transfer from the Red Line to the Green Line, which
goes out to Oak Park, can be confusing and that area can be a mob scene
in the mid to late afternoon.)
I think it would be a good idea to use the list here as a "clearing
house" for those who are staying close to downtown who either have
vehicles or need a ride to let each other know.
Sooooo ... If you will be needing a ride to various functions, please
respond to this note and state your name (obviously), where you will be
staying, and which days/nights/activities you will be needing rides to.
Likewise, if you will have a vehicle, please respond and let people know
where you are staying, what dates you will be there, which activities
you will and will not be going to, and how many seats you have vacant.
