Hello singers! I'm pleased to (finally!) invite you to an informal meet-up
the night before the All California convention. Don't let me keep you from
your kitchens where I know you'll be whipping up lots of hearty food for
our dinner on the grounds! But this will be a great opportunity to welcome
and socialize with visiting singers, especially for those of you hosting
out-of-towners and looking for a place to meet.
Details:
Blue Danube Coffee Shop
1333 Park St in Alameda, at the corner of Alameda Ave.
Friday, January 13th
6:30 - 8 (feel free to stay, they are open til 10)
The Blue Danube serves coffee, beer, wine, sandwiches, and more! We'll pony
up for some food. There will probably not be singing :)
Street parking in Alameda on a Friday night is iffy, but there is a FREE
public parking garage two blocks away, on Oak Street between Central and
Santa Clara.

If you're driving from the airport, Alameda is on the way to almost
everywhere, just off the 880 freeway. Park street is also served by AC
transit buses. The Park street bridge to Alamada is bike friendly. Please
contact me in advance if you'd like a ride from the Fruitvale BART station,
or with any questions. My number is (510) 610-1872.
Hope to see you there!
