| Last minute Note to the 2007 Summer Retreat |
Just a reminder regarding our summer retreat this Saturday
Dear IABMR members and friends,
Just a reminder regarding our summer retreat this Saturday
W H E N : Saturday August 25th 11am-5pm (however welcome to come before and leave later!)
W H E R E : Salisbury Beach, MA.
This map will help you to get closer to the party place
This map is a "zoomed" version and shows the party location.
Please note that there are 3 parking lots, the closer to the party location is the last one, the one on the lower right side of the map. Parking has a fee service.
The BBQ place is 200 feet on the left of the parking lot, right below the rotary in the street and located where the pine trees are.
We spoke to the Rangers to have an idea of how much crowd to expect at the BBQ facilities, and they said it is hard to predict. So we might have to share the BBQ facilities with many other people.
Our suggestion is to bring food for BBQ and also to bring some ready-to-eat food to share with others , in case the BBQ facilities are very crowded.
IABMR will take care of bringing bread for hot dogs and frankfurters, drinks (water and sodas); corn and fruit; and other delicious stuff for BBQ. We will also bring plastic utensils, dishes and napkins, and some sun protection cream!
If you have some portable grill it would be advisable to carry with you to make the BBQ cooking faster for our group!
Remember to bring games, footballs, and swimming suites!
CAR POOLING: In case you do not know how to join the party, let us know by Friday noon if you need a ride and your location for pick up, and we will try to help.
In case you arrive in Salisbury and cannot find us, there are 2 possibilities:
-ask the Rangers for the BBQ place near the beach
-call Elena (857-891-5277) or Bai-Lin (617-827-3009).
If you are invited by IABMR members, you are WELCOME to join our party, and please go on the IABMR web site (www.iabmr.org) and sign in, by giving your e-mail address, so t hat we can keep in touch for our further events, such as annual meeting, scientific activities and New Year party etc..
I hope to see many of you on the beach!
Elena
