INFO re: DINNER and SWAG/DOOR PRIZE CONTRIBUTIONS

DINNER INFORMATION

If you'd like to be added to the sign-up list, please comment here (or on the sign-up list post) by this Thursday, July 31, so that I can provide Edwardo's with the final headcount. We are on a pre-set meal plan (food selections have already been made, with some folks' special dietary needs accounted for--please comment if you haven't done so previously) and the cost will be $20 per person, with payment to be made at the door. We'll be at the Edwardo's that's within (reasonable) walking distance:

Chicago - Printer's Row
521 S. Dearborn Street
Chicago, IL 60605
(312) 939-3366
We are booked as the Terminus group.

Directions from the hotel.

Please remember the dinner starts promptly on Friday at 7:30 pm; we only have the restaurant for 2 hours so please make every effort to be right on time! I understand some folks may be coming from the general slash meetup (at 5:30 on Friday). For those who'd like to leave as a group from the hotel, please meet by the clock near the main entrance off Michigan Avenue of Hilton Chicago Hotel at 7 pm; we will leave at around 7:10 pm.

CONTRIBUTIONS

If you have any contributions to either the goodie bags or the free raffle for door prizes that you haven't mentioned on this comm or to me ([info]dracofiend), [info]aliciamasters or [info]djin7 yet, please comment! We are putting the goodie bags together on Thursday from 4-6 pm in my hotel room; I'll be getting in Wednesday around 4ish and Alicia will be getting late on Wed night. I'll be posting the room location on Wednesday after I check in; if you could track us down before or during 4-6 on Thursday to provide us with your contribution(s), we'll be able to put them into the bags! We can also add items later on Thurs or Fri during the day, but we'd like to have the bags complete as possible by 6 pm Thurs. For door prizes, feel free to give them to us beforehand or bring them to the restaurant on Friday.

INFO re: CAF RIVER CRUISE

Here are directions from hotel to the CAF dock, via public transit. You can take the #6 Jackson Park Express bus from the Michigan/Balboa station, which you can see from the map is quite close to the hotel, to the CAF dock (last stop). Here is the #6 bus schedule. You can also walk there in about 25 mins (according to googlemaps).

For those of us going on the Saturday 5:30 pm CAF cruise, unless there are any objections, let's plan to meet at 4:45 at the clock near the main entrance off Michigan Avenue of the hotel, to catch the 4:50 bus. I assume the buses run on time; the bus ride is about 10 mins; that way we'll be able to get to the dock 15 mins beforehand even if we miss a bus or end up walking.
