FINAL SITEEWORKS PLAN AND INFO:
-Reminder of the NJ Transit Strike. Plan ahead if this affects you.
-Meet at the corner of 85th street and Central Park West between 1-1:30pm to pick up your speaker. I will be sitting on the benches along the sidewalk.
-Proceed to the grassy hill just inside the park, near the playground. Connect your speaker and wait until we’re all assembled. This is about 200 feet inside the park from the 85th street entrance. One or more of our helpers will be there to direct you.
-By 2pm we'll start a timer for 60 minutes and start walking through the park, taking only a ½ mile tour, stopping in several spots (shown as orange dots on the map) for 5-minute “blending” sessions. We will NOT head toward the Sheep Meadow as originally planned, but will instead circumnavigate the Great Lawn. If park goers get grumpy, we'll cut the blending sessions short and just keep moving. Generally try to keep a 3-foot distance between other composers so park goers can walk through us if needed.
-PLEASE be careful if and when we cross West Drive. There will be bikers and runners.
-There are several other events in the park (and construction), and there may be some barricades along West Drive. We’ll need to be flexible with the path. The attached map is our intended plan, but it may change. Follow me, Joe, and our helpers.
-We intend to end up where we started walking; near the 85th Street entrance.
-After we’ve done 60 minutes of music (or if you need to stop early for any reason), return your speaker and pick up your cash!
-I am at 347-351-7326. Please have your email handy for any last-minute adjustments right before the event!
