Re: Join us in Madison, WI

Hi Carolyn,
Saturday isn't really events, but rather a list of places to visit on your own. Sorry if that was misleading. The locations will be expecting us and might do something on their own. I'll keep everyone posted. So of course, you can visit as many or few as you like.

Looking forward to seeing you soon!
Linda
