Noon Adjourn

*Please note that there will be 1 afternoon tour during the NC-140 meeting. The local arrangements committee will make a decision based upon weather conditions whether to hold the tour on Monday or Tuesday afternoon.

The closest airport is the Harrisburg International Airport but both Washington (Reagan National and Dulles) and the Baltimore airport (Baltimore-Washington International Airport) are within 2 hours driving time. Attempts will be made to pickup attendees as practical at all airports. To ease this job please plan to use the Baltimore-Washington International Airport if practical. Canadians may want to use the Harrisburg International Airport since there are several Air Ontario flights direct to Harrisburg International Airport daily.
