Overview |
The SIG field trip and dinner have now been organized. Both events will occur on Wednesday 3 April. The field trip is a tour of three 'brownfield' sites in New Orleans. A description of the three sites follows. The tour is an initiative of the New Orleans city council and will cover both the ecological and social implications of the three sites. It promises to be very interesting. The tour is not commonly available to tourists visiting New Orleans. We have hired a bus which will leave the front entrance of the Marriott at 2 pm and return at 5 pm. The dinner is at a highly recommended, relatively inexpensive, Creole restaurant, "Dickie Brennan's Palace Cafe" at 605 Canal St. Dinner commences at 7 pm and we will meet at the restaurant. The cost of the tour will be about $18.00 per head depending on the number going. You will need to pay in cash at the time of the tour. It is essential to book early as we have reserved only 25 places for the tour and the dinner. Please email Kimewalker@aol.com to make your reservation. It is not necessary to attend both events but I do need to know which (or both) events you intend to attend. |
