What, Where, When, and How?

[edit]

Special Notes:

[edit]
  • The meetup is the same weekend as MediaWiki Hack-A-Ton, which is in DC and bringing in developers and Wikimedia staff.
  • Bertucci's is in a GWU university building and is 100% accessible for the disabled.

Maps and info

[edit]
Bertucci's (note: despite the steps, that's not the main entrance. Bertucci's is fully accessible for the disabled)
  • To get there from Metro's red line, you will have to change from the red line to the orange/blue line at Metro Center. You need to take the orange/blue line in the direction of Vienna.
  • To get there from Metro's green or yellow line, you should change to the orange/blue line at L'Enfant Plaza, and get the orange/blue line in the direction of Vienna.
  • If coming from Virginia, you can take either the orange or blue line directly to the Foggy Bottom station.
  • Ride a bike to the meetup! There is a Capital Bikeshare station across the street from Bertucci's (outside TGI Fridays at 21 & I St) and plenty of bike racks around if you ride your own bike.
  • If you drive, there is a parking garage at 2000 Pennsylvania Avenue, [1]. The parking garage entrance is on 20th St NW. Street (meter) parking is also available.
  • Here (pdf) is a GWU campus map, which shows individual buildings. Bertucci's is located in #97 on the map.

  8. Sadads (talk) 03:33, 13 October 2010 (UTC) School is getting a little hectic on top of the Campus Ambassador stuff, don't think I should spend a whole day traveling up and back from DC. Wish I could come. Sadads (talk) 03:26, 18 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Sad you can't come but understand. When is your winter break? We certainly can schedule another meetup for then. --Aude (talk) 03:51, 18 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    I will be around between the December 18 and January 6 when I go over to the UK for 6 months to study abroad. Their is some discussion of doing another Wikipedia Ambassador training that first week in January, so I will definitely be around for part of that. That would be a good time to schedule another meetup as well to allow the Ambassadors to begin interacting with the community. We should have a firmer idea of when it is going to be sometime in November, so we can start planning then. Sadads (talk) 04:01, 18 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Wow, sounds awesome to spend 6 months in the UK, but we will miss you. Would December 19th work for DC Meetup #13? --Aude (talk) 15:50, 18 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks. It should be fine for me but you may want to talk around to others too. I should be around most of that time unless I am doing anything Wikipedia Ambassador related (such as training).Sadads (talk) 20:48, 18 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
