SCLC update

[David Kaufman]

Hi everyone,

Let's make this my last call for any of you who are arriving at KCI (MCI)
and need a ride from the airport on Thurs.  So far we've only received a
few responses, from Mary Marino (1:25), Marty Richardson (3:45), and David
Rood (~6:30).  So, *please let us know by Weds if you need an airport
pick-up* (giving time of arrival), otherwise I will assume that you are
either driving in or have otherwise already made airport pick-up
arrangements.  We will decide between the three of us (Bob, Kathy, and me)
based on responses how many pick-ups need to be made and at what time(s).

By the way, I am planning to be at the Margaret Amini Hall Thurs evening
just to assist the KU Housing employee in making sure things go smoothly as
far as check-in goes, and to collect your $15 conference fee if you have it
available (cash is probably best).  I will also give you your folder at
that time with program and other goodies.  If I don't see you then, you can
give me your fee on Fri.  (Remember, those of you driving onto campus on
Fri to the Wescoe conference room, you will have to pay an $8 parking fee
for the day at the gate).

Oh, btw, my email address is actually dvkanth2010 at gmail.com.. : )  I don't
have a cell phone unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look
at it).
