Update 11/2/12

Due to Hurricane Sandy and limited subway service, this event will be rescheduled to Saturday 11/10/12. Please adjust your RSVP accordingly.

Also, if you are able, please visit a nearby shelter to donate food and clothes, or volunteer to help those who were severely affected by the storm.

Update 11/1/12

1. If the subway system is not fully operational and/or if weather permits, this event may be rescheduled to a later date this month.

2. Also, this event will now be an “open meetup” . After we gather at the meetup point, you can either wander around in small groups or venture on your own.

3. I am removing the limit so that others can sign up to attend.

Since Verena is out of commission due to a broken ankle, the Storm King event has been cancelled. However, if you are still interested in going there, visit Verena’s post on the message board for more information:

As an alternative, you can attend this “open event” - the Brooklyn Botanic Garden to capture some foliage there. The meetup point is in front of the Eastern Parkway entrance, and the nearest subway station is Eastern Parkway (2 or 3 train). You may bring a guest if you like.

* Be on time! This event starts at 11am sharp!! So give yourself plenty of time to travel. Check for service changes or delays. I will not wait for latecomers and I will not answer calls, emails and/or messages after 11am.

* Please be courteous and change your RSVP accordingly. If you RSVP “yes” and cannot or will not make it, please change it to “no”, so that someone else can attend.

* Don’t forget your camera, charged batteries and empty memory cards!!

If you have any questions, text me only before the day of the event. Please make sure you identify yourself in your message, so I know who your are.
