We will meet at SEAS and leave at 12:45 pm from the SEAS parking lot. We need to arrive at the Monument by 2pm for our scheduled tour. So we need to leave promptly at 12:45 pm. You of course can just meet us at the Monument at 2:00 if that works better for you driving wise. 

Please let us know that you will be meeting us at SEAS (or not) so we can make sure we have everyone before we leave.

Also, bring your own snacks if you need them!
