Afterwards, we will start our walk in Chinatown and then head towards the waterfront for a Boston harbor walk (or Copley square area ) for about a 2-3 mile walk. The walking part is optional and weather dependent.

For the Restaurant meal, figure about up to, or around $20-30 per person, (depending on what is ordered).

Please bring small bills to make for easy change, if possible.

We will meet at the entrance of the restaurant at 10:45 am. Please be prompt.

Note; before we get seated and start ordering, we’ll have someone go around and check people’s names to verify that they have the $$. This is to make it fair and to avoid difficulties with payment at the end(as this is a shared tab). Or you can order off the menu; that would be your responsibility.

Based on group feedback, the intent is to have more of a balance of men to woman ratio for this event. In order to achieve this, priority will be given for members moved up to the RSVP from the wait list. I trust a good mix will ensure everybody will have more fun.

PLEASE DO NOT DISCUSS POLITICS as we have members with all kinds of strong opinions - this is not the place for that. Be courteous to everyone and the Organizers who take the effort to list events.
