If your name is on the list, we'll try to wait for you to show up
before we head over.
We'll be heading out from the office (W20-415) at 8:10am and taking
the 70A bus most of the way there. Once we're there, we'll head to the
library where we'll be directed to more specific things.
It looks like this year we'll be processing
talking books to be sent out to the blind community throughout New
England, so it'll be a great opportunity to check out a project that
will impact a large number of people!
We'll be working from 9am to noon, and if this is anything like it was
last time I went, lunch will be provided (I also seem to recall them
having danishes for breakfast, although they might be on shorter
supply, so if you want to be super sure you have something to eat in
the morning, it might be useful to pack a granola bar or something
just in case).
After that we'll head back; you can probably expect to be home by 1pm
the latest, unless we decide to go hang out somewhere afterwards.
It would also be useful for you to email me your phone number some
time before the project, so we can keep in touch on the day of the
project. Also let me know if you want a wakeup call, since we'll be
having to get up pretty early for this.
