woot woot, gonna be fun!

[Silentperformance]

I'll be there!

[Astraline]

Hello Everyone!!?? what a great turnout!!

Ok our contact is Ainslie Seeber and her advice is "I think the best way to do this is have everyone park in the front parking lot, they can pull up to the drop off, we'll get the totes on a cart.?? We'll take them up our elevator to a private office??area (no one will be up there and you have to buzz in with a card to get in that area) and it has two private bathrooms."

??

I'm going to arrive early to coordinate and wait for everyone to arrive.?? She is going to try and get us handlers to help us out.?? So as long as we have a non-helmet person per group, if we split up, we should be good!!

??

thanks!

[Mason Windu]

I'm up for being a wrangler if y'all still need one!

[Jimbo]

Chana Odom (one of our NEG people) can't make the troop but works at the Starbucks across the street and offered to give us a bunch of coffee. I can pick it up and bring it to everyone, but Chana wanted to know whether we'd like it pre- or post-troop so she can have it ready for us???

Morning coffee!

As a wrangler, how should we be dressed? I mean, is this an outdoor event or will it be inside and warm?

Presumably a bit of both; dress for outside.?? Sweaters, hoodies, gloves, a hat... etc.?? I think I have hand warming packs in my car still too, if anyone wants to shove them in their costume to help stay warm

[Kaipurrr]

You can text me at??203 690 8307 for garrison related stuff!?? The aquarium is hard to miss so I wouldn't worry about being lost

[Silentperformance]

@Alay A few posts up you mentioned it was a possibility this troop is indoors and out.?? Has that firmed up at all?

Hey Nick

No additional info my way.?? Given the aquarium layout I'm thinking it's a safe assumption it will be a bit of both.?? @Astraline may have more specific info.

[Mawee2018]
