Field Trip Details

There are about 18 of you, plus instructors, for the field trip on Tuesday, January 13.
We are headed to Calvin Presbyterian Church
They have a page on their website dedicated to Tent City
and here are directions to the church
the address is 18826 3rd Avenue NW in Shoreline,

Peter will drive a 7-passenger van, and we'll snag a volunteer from among you to drive the 2nd van.  We are assuming some of you will meet us there, and I will drive another small car as well (5 can fit if we're all friends).  Let's meet at South Campus Center, at the entrance where the cash machine is in the S1 parking lot.  I will assume everyone is riding in a van or my car UNLESS you email me otherwise.  We may need a third van.

We are told that toiletries would be appreciated by Tent City residents.  So please bring a bar of soap, a toothbrush, a bottle of shampoo, hand cream, that sort of thing--new, obviously.  I'll bring a nice basket to present it in.

We will leave PROMPTLY at 1:30, and we will be back before 3:30 (Amy teaches another class that starts then).
