General Information

The next LWS TR&T SEP focus group meeting will be held at Caltech on September 16-18th, 2008. 
Please email Christina if you plan to attend, so we can get a rough head count.
While you are at the meeting messages can be left with Debby at (626) 395-6611 and faxes sent to (626) 449-8676.

We will make arrangements for guest accounts on the campus wireless internet.  Details will be available at the meeting.

Lunch will be either at the Chandler Cafe or the Athenaeum both of which are on campus (neither place accepts credit cards).


Hotel Information

A list of hotels with negotiated Caltech rates can be found here.
You should be able to get the negotiated rate by just mentioning that you are going to a Caltech meeting.  If you have any problems let Christina know.
Most people favored the Saga Motel last time.


Directions, Maps, Parking

The meeting will be held in Winnet Center which is building 51 on this campus map (grid section D4).  We will be in the 2nd floor conference room, reachable by the stairs on the north-east or south-east corner of the building. The meeting will start at 8:30am - breakfast pastries/muffins will be provided.

Parking on campus is no longer free.  You can buy day permits ($5/day) at the pay stations in/near the parking garages.  We suggest you park in either the parking structure just south of California Blvd (structure 126 on the map) or the one just west of Wilson Ave (structure 124 on the map).

Maps of the airports servicing Pasadena and the relative location to Caltech can be seen on this map.  Burbank is the closest airport but, since it is small, it does not service all airlines equally.
