Yes, it will take us 60 minutes to learn about all the different buildings on the circle and the monument itself. The tour will start at 10:30 and is fully handicap accessible.
The event cost is $150. If we can get 15 people it’s only $10 each, the more people we have the cheaper it is for everyone. If it’s less than 15 it will cost each person more. Bring $15-$20 in cash to pay Sue Galloway that morning. She must give them only one payment.
We will then walk one and a half blocks to Buca di Beppo and eat lunch at 12 o’clock.
We should arrive home around two thirtyish or before. Since parking downtown can be very expensive, we would like to carpool with as many people per car as possible. We are still researching which parking garage is cheapest by Buca.
If you are willing to drive, please let Sue know, and also how many people can fit in your car. We will split parking costs with the people in your car. Sign up by texting Sue at 317.201.0449 or we will have sign up at church on Sunday, July 21.
