When: Saturday September 14th from 10:15 – 3:30
Where: Two Locations – Westminster Presbyterian Church and Minneapolis College Campus
First, we will meet at Westminster Presbyterian Church at 10:15 in Westminster Hall (you will LOVE this space) where we will rehearse with the Minnesota Chorale until 12:00 noon. Westminster has free underground parking. The address is 1200 Marquette Avenue
Minneapolis MN 55403
After rehearsing with the Chorale, we will walk over to campus (or drive if you parked at Westminster). It is a 10 minute walk if you use the Greenway that runs between Loring Park and Nicollet Mall. We will meet on campus in L3100 by 12:30, and eat lunch together, and do some “getting to know you” activities.
We will end our retreat with a rehearsal.
On the Minneapolis College Campus, L3100, L3400, F2700

IMPORTANT: I used to be able to send a campus map, which showed where all of the rooms are. It would be great if all of you could make an extra effort to locate the rooms ahead of time – especially L3100. It is really difficult to describe how to navigate to different rooms on campus. L3100 is on the 3rd floor of the Library building. You cannot get to L3100 from within the library itself, but you can access it from the big staircase that is in the lobby of the library building. This staircase takes you to a small lounge with vending machines – to your right you will find another staircase. Take that to the third floor, turn right at the top of the stairs, walk past the information desk (which likely won’t be staffed) and turn left again. It is the room at the end of the hall and you will probably see some of us there.
