thank you!
Ann Arbor Art Fair is that weekend (which is why the DO is then) and

it is possible to get here from DTW w/o a car --- I've been using Ann Arbor Custom Transits service (I normally park off airport and w/ 12 inches of snow on the ground....)

Also, you can get around town with AATA buses and they run special routes to the Art Fair.

Y'all don't forget that last year there was a Pointsbreak that weekend at a HIX (I think) near DTW. Keep an eye out.

Looks like the township hall is only bookable 2 months out.

So, I won't know about that option until May.

And I think I remember some folks had GPS issues with the township hall in years past. If we go there, we'll need to confirm directions.

i just saw that too. Maybe he figures since the A2DO is sold out with a waiting list, he can convince those waiting to jump ship!

I'm planning on getting the township bldg. Just need to wait until May to confirm.

And in case anyone else is thinking of jumping ship, too late...
