Hi everybody,

I'd like to get the ball rolling on the next mapping party location.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a location to map? I was
thinking about the Lake Harriet bandshell (and the paths and
concession areas around it) or somewhere in Dinkytown.

What're your suggestions?

Hack factory is a pretty cool space and they are happy to have people come use the space. They have a classroom with a projector and several outlets as well as wifi.

I'm working on getting the St. Anthony Park branch of the St. Paul library system booked for July 10th. Does anyone have other ideas for a mapping party location?

We could do 50th and France in Edina and meet in the community room at Lunds—I just checked and they have Wi-Fi.

That sounds like a good idea. Can you find out if it's open on July 10th any time during the day?

I just called, for the fun of it. The room is available at 4pm for
the rest of the evening.

From their website:
Community Room
To reserve, call 952-926-6833

I had no idea Lunds had a community room. That's great.

Yeah, the community room at the Edina Lunds is upstairs above the Caribou
Coffee. The Uptown Lunds has one upstairs as well. I am not able to make a
mapping party on July 10, unfortunately, but go for it!

Hi everybody,

Would meeting on a weekday be completely out for anyone? The next few weekends are booked solid for me so I thought I'd try to get something together for an weekday evening party. Is there a particular day that would be better for you?

Thanks,
Ian

I could do a weekday night—Tues or Thurs best for me.

Tuesday and Thursday are good nights for me as well.  I will be out of town the last week of July.

It sounds like Tuesday would be the best. I'll renew efforts to find a location. 50th and France's Lunds is probably my first choice. Does anyone have any issues getting there by roughly 6pm on a Tuesday (i.e. does work hold you later than that)?

I may have just missed something, but which Tuesday were thinking?
I'd assume the 20th of July, 2010.

I haven't decided that part, yet :).

I'll let you guys know once I find a location with a free time slot.
