Change in General Meeting Location for March 2017

Hello ARROW colleagues,

I want to get the word out that we will have a new location for the March 8 ARROW General Meeting. Instead of a classroom at Washtenaw Community College, we will be using a classroom at the University of Michigan.

The new location is:
Rm #2424
Space Research Building
University of Michigan
2455 Hayward St
Ann Arbor, MI 48109

Parking behind the building is free after 5 pm (UM lot NC-28).

It is easy to get to; go west on Hubbard from Huron Parkway (Hubbard is the first traffic light on Huron Parkway south of Plymouth Road; turn right on Hubbard if you are coming from the north, or turn left if you are approaching from the south). You will soon come to a stop sign. Go straight at the stop sign; the road name will change to Hayward. Space Research is the first building on the right, after you pass a couple of parking lots on the right. The driveway for Space Research parking comes up just before you get to the building; turn in and park behind the building. We have the room starting at 6:30. The building automatic door locks kick-on at precisely 7pm, although we will station somebody to let people in. And will be listening on the ARROW repeater.
