Attending Annual? Reminder about Universal Accessibility Interest Group Social

  • 1.  Attending Annual? Reminder about Universal Accessibility Interest Group Social

    Posted Jun 08, 2015 11:03 AM

    Universal Accessibility Interest Group (UAIG) Social at ALA Annual in San Francisco


    RSVP deadline extended!


    Time: Sunday, June 28 6:30pm


    Location: Bluestem Brasserie (http://www.bluestembrasserie.com/).  Google estimates a 7 minute walk from Moscone Center


    Map of directions from Moscone Center: https://goo.gl/maps/V1UIE


    We have contacted the restaurant about accessibility of the entrance, bathrooms, and noise level.  The menu http://www.bluestembrasserie.com/perch/resources/bluestemdinnerjune2015.png is subject to change, but appears to include a variety of dietary options, although it would be wise to check with the restaurant for specific restrictions.  (Bring cash, as they have limited willingness to split checks!)


    Please RSVP (laura.delancey@wku.edu) by Friday, June 19th so we can make a reservation, and let us know if you have additional accessibility needs.


    We hope you can join us!
