As we've mentioned before, instead of having people fill out paper slips, we're going to have them enter their information right into laptops that we'll have right in the booth. It's simple and easy to do, but we just want to go over things before the booth actually opens. We also plan to hand out tickets and the new T-shirts. The Plymouth Library is located at 15700 36th Avenue North - link to directions is below: Directionf to Meeting (Map)
