Pre-travel orientation
Hello Spring Travelers-
We have selected a Pre-travel orientation site and are eagerly planning to meet you there soon.
Check out Voluntown Peace Trust's website to learn more about this retreat center where we'll have the chance to get to know each other, explore the spring itinerary in-depth, go over health and safety issues, and answer all the questions that may be bouncing around your head as you prepare for the great adventure ahead.
It is roughly 2.5 hours drive from NYC, 1 hour from Boston, 1 hour from Hartford, and half an hour from the Providence airport.
VERY IMPORTANT: Please let Michelle know michelle@global-lab.org if you plan to be dropped off directly at VPT or if you will be meeting at Port Authority to take the bus to our retreat with other students. Students who are meeting in NYC should meet at Port Authority by 1:30 pm on February the 15th. From there you will be taking a bus together to Providence, Rhode Island.
Global LAB staff will meet you at the Providence bus station and provide transportation for you from there to and from the retreat and also to the airport!
More information will follow soon about which bus company gate to meet at and the exact bus departure time (and fare) for the ride those of you meeting in NYC will be taking.
Looking forward to meeting you all in person soon!
Michelle
