That’s all I am aware of. Hope this was helpful 

The next meeting is on Thursday, May 1st from 6:30 - 8:00 PM. You would go in the main hospital entrance and "check in" at the front desk.  They will give you a visitor pass and directions to the meeting room. Also, you can park in the garage... you will get a voucher to pay for the parking. ~wendy
