Roll and Stroll FEBRUARY AND MARCH ACTIVITIES
The previous plans to visit Chinatown have been changed. Additional information will be announced at our February meeting. I am awaiting schedule information from Chinatown Center which announced that the celebration will occur on Sunday Feb. 25th.
FEBRUARY 23RD FRIDAY – Peoples Art Gallery at Austin City Hall
We will depart from Wheatsville at 5:15 p.m. to arrive at City Hall prior to the opening at 6:00 p.m. Be prepared to stand in a short line to go thru security. Carry a small purse. We went last year and had a good time. We will not stop for dinner as heavy snack food is provided at the event. If we are still hungry we may stop after the event for dessert.
MARCH 3RD – SATURDAY – Explore the University of Texas – An open house event with a visit to many campus buildings. This annual event always attracts a large crowd.
