----------------------------Original message---------------------------- I've spoken with Susan Kruse and AMC and have further information. Since letters would barely reach anyone before they leave town, there will not be advance notification except via these messages at this late date. I've heard from some Canadian members who received their registration materials late and plan to register on site. It still wouldn't hurt to call AMC (ask for Michelle Greenstein) at 1-800-875-4181 and register your interest in a specific tour so we have a better count. (1) These are three names that didn't make it into the Saturday April 27 Bicycle Tour: Maryly Snow Judy Donovan Judith Herschman If you're one of those three people, my apologies, they actually ran out of bicycles! Give AMC a call and request something else or talk to them when you hit Miami Beach. (2) It will NOT be possible to schedule the Everglades Tour which lasts until 1pm in conjuction with another tour that begins at 1pm (such as Vizcaya). HOWEVER, you could schedule the Miami Highlights (which ends at noon) in conjunction with an afternoon tour (which begins at 1pm). Travel time back from the Everglades varies a bit and they just can't guarantee you'd be back in time to board the next bus. (3) The Metro Dade Art Tour. There were only three people (as I previously mentioned). They are: Susan Clarke Elizabeth Hylen Etignard (they could only decipher a last name) This tour is cancelled (as I previously mentioned). If you are one of these people Barbara Young is working out a plan to let you do part of the tour on your own or you might call AMC and schedule something else. (4) And, as I mentioned in my previous note, the Palm Beach tour has been cancelled. If you were scheduled for that one, I'd recommend "Miami Highlights" and "Vizcaya/Coconut Grove" or "Miami Highlights" with the "Art Deco TOur/lunch" or just the Everglades by itself (since the bicycle tour is full). ---------- Anne Ross, Head Fine Arts/Audio-Visual Depts.
