FIELD TRIPS!

Hi All,

If you don't already know.... EMU's URP and GIS students have been invited, by theTownship Manager Dale Reaume, to tour Grosse Isle Island! He is an EMU Alum and a planner! He will provide us an educational and fun tour on Friday Nov. 9th!

We will meet just outside the Strong Hall Studio Room doors @ 12noon and will leave campus by way of " ride sharing " @ 12:30. We will drive along the Detroit River Front through Wyandotte and arrive at the Grosse Isle Island Township Hall by 3pm. While on the island we will learn about the airport, harbor, open space, housing and other planning related aspects. After the tour, we plan to have dinner (on the island ) at a nice but rather inexpensive restaurant. We should be leaving the island around 7pmish, arriving back in Ypsilanti by 8:30pm.

Consider the immense value in this field trip and Dale's generous offer. Get to know fellow classmates in your program and have a really fun break from the typical class room setting!

So mark your calendars, TELL YOUR FRIENDS and CLASSMATES and let me know if you will be attending...

The other field trip is a little more local. We will pay a visit to Carlisle Wortman Friday Nov. 30th in Ann Arbor. Aaron Flohr is working on trying to get us a combined tour at the Mallet Ann Arbor Library ( a sustainable green building) for the 30th before we go to C.W.
