It's the past being offered to you in the present!

-T&E's ROLE IN THIS EVENT-
1) publicize the event
2) put attendees in touch with each other beforehand
so they can car pool and go together
The T&E event point person is Monty Rackow.
Monty's role is to collect names, emails and phone numbers of those interested.
By 9/3, please tell Monty if you're going.
On 9/10 Monty will email all attendees to inform them who's going.
Those who are willing to drive can then reach out to the others to inform them of
willingness to drive, passenger capacity (remember to allow space for folding chairs), coolers, etc.
Those needing a ride should apprise the others.
Attendees will self-organize car pools; T&E will not be arranging them.
