NEW YORK INFO ! READ UP!

I spoke to Tina, our tour guide today and the deal on changing clothes is:

1. You will NOT have access to your large luggage that will be under the bus until AFTER the theatre on Thursday night, when we actually check into the hotel. You should take everything you need to get ready for the theatre with you in a carry on bag and keep it on the bus with you as we travel.

2. The plan is for us to meet the busses near Central Park BEFORE dinner on Thursday. We can have guys change first, then kick 'em out and have the girls change. KEEP IT SIMPLE! It's Concert dress code : no jeans, tennis shoes, tee shirts, hats, or other school inappropriate dress!

3. When you leave the hotel on Friday AM, it will be the same deal. Carry anything you need for the day onto the bus with you. We will change the same way after our clinic and BEFORE dinner at BB King and the Philharmonic performance.

4. When you leave the hotel Saturday Am - we are NOT coming back, so be all packed! Carry on will not need to be packed for changing, as we do not plan a changing stop before the dinner cruise. (Jeans and nice shirt are OK - but remember you ARE expected to look presentable). BUT you will need everything you want to have with you on the ride home.

5. Bring comfortable walking shoes! Thursday and Saturday involve a lot of walking around the city.

6. Mr. Smigell says jeans and a nice top are OK for all things EXCEPT the theatre and the Philharmonic performance.

7. Vegetarians?!? YOU MUST LET MR. Smigell know your requests TODAY so we can tell restaurants.



That's all we know for now!
