Event

SLAS volunteers should plan to arrive around 7:30 or 7:45 pm and be ready to go by 8 pm, in the same area as the talk.  Viewing will continue until 10:00 pm or until the crowd is gone.  No restrooms will be available after 6 pm, when the Visitor Center closes.   If you have a color printer, Rich can send you a parking placard that you can post on your dashboard.   This will allow you to park on the north side of Market St., just west of Memorial Dr., adjacent to the Plaza.  Otherwise, pick up a placard from Rich when you arrive.
