Your Arrival Plans
We would appreciate knowing the arrival plans of our out-of-area participants who are staying in Potomac House, the GWU dorm. Check-in at Potomac House (2021 F Street, N.W.) begins after 3 p.m. on July 3. Alan will have the keys to give you so those arriving on July 3 or 4 need to make arrangements with him. You may reach Alan at ajweintraut@gmail.com or (202) 360-0080.

I live near Dulles and may be able to assist those who land there.
