There are so many great planning events happening Thursday and Friday! Unfortunately, many overlap, but hopefully you can make it to some of them. All are totally accessible by public transit. Participants are encouraged to take transit, walk, bike or at the very least carpool. In planning, I feel like being an SOV is equivilent to being an SOB. (My apologies for the crassness.)
Please read more to see the list!
