Friday, February 11 – Sunday, February 13
at The Flying Squirrel Community Space (www.thesquirrel.org [1])
285 Clarissa St., Rochester, NY
(directions here [2])
The weekend's events will begin Saturday morning. We are expecting people to start arriving Friday evening/night at the Flying Squirrel, but please let us know if you will be arriving especially late so that we can make sure someone will be ready to help when you arrive.
For those arriving before 10pm Friday night there will be the option of attending the Trans Love Dance Party, on the second floor of the Flying Squirrel. The event will be free and fun, but is being organized by another group so we expect all to be respectful if attending. For more info, check http://thesquirrel.org/node/491 [3].
