Alert: Watch for the Weather Balloons, Sunday 11/18/07 2pm

Correction: The CAC Tour IS Actually a Public Event (see post above).

Heard at the CAC Meeting: This coming Sunday, at 2pm or
later, the Hospital plans to fly weather balloons to heights of 160 and 240 feet. These are the proposed heights of several of the Hospital's towering "alternatives."

The balloons will head aloft sometime during the CAC's 2-4pm tour of the proposed expansion area (including Laurelon). Note that the Hospital will be launching the balloons, so don't be surprised if their markers are less than conspicuous.

We bet you can figure out where the balloons are located by watching the committee members looking skyward. They meet at the Giraffe Garage at 2pm, rain or shine. Please respect that the tour itself is not for the public-- This is a public CAC meeting, so the public is indeed invited to almost the entire tour, except the times when the CAC will be visiting family residences at Laurelon.

Be ready with your cameras!
