Hello Docents and VS Specialists-
You get first dibs on an opportunity to visit Victoria Adams studio at 10:30 am on Vashon Island on Tuesday, August 17. There will be some expense involved for those that choose to participate as the cost of the ferry to Vashon is not covered by the museum. I am hoping that we can carpool as much as possible to keep the cost down. What I need from each of you is an RSVP if you want to go (and I need you to mean it). I will also need to know
1) Do you want to stay for a lunch afterwards? You can catch a ferry at either 12:10 pm (if you don’t stay for lunch) or at 2:15 pm.
2) Are you will willing to take passengers in your car for the trip over to Vashon and one of the departing times above?
I will need your confirmed RSVP by July 30 as I will open the opportunity to all volunteers after that time. Space is limited to 20. Vicki Adams will be doing a demo in addition to letting us visit her studio so this should be a lot of fun. For those that RSVP for lunch, I will be researching restaurants that are open on Tuesdays , as I understand our choices will be limited, and I will make a reservation at the one that can accommodate a crowd. We may get one choice so no picky eaters should RSVP for lunch! I have posted the prices for the ferry below and, if I read it correctly, the cost for a car with 4 passengers should be $32.35 per vehicle, assuming none of you are seniors, meaning the cost per person should be no more than about $8 per person for a full vehicle.
