If you are planning to attend the 11:00 ceremony at City Hall, I recommend you arrive at 801 Plum Street between 10:30 and 11:00 AM. The official White Cane Safety Day walk to fountain square (Fifth and Vine) will follow immediately after the opening ceremony.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>If your plans are to meet the walkers at Fountain square or to be picked up there after the event, (with Access, Uber or someone else driving you) use 38 Fountain Square Plaza which is the address of fifth-third bank. A friend and/or volunteer who drives and remains at Fountain Square to assist with this event can park in the Fountain Square garage (fees will apply).<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Finally, if you take the Metro bus to six and vine on Fountain Square, you will only have to walk one block over to fifth and vine where we will be located.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>If you have additional transportation questions, please email or call me.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I look forward to seeing you on Monday.
