(Note that we will go on the "Blue Line Tour", mentioned near the top of the link - ie. the 1:30PM tour)

The pick-up location is the north side of City Hall at 99 Street and 103A Avenue eastbound, at Bus Stop #1123.
ETS state that you should be at the pick-up location 15 minutes before the tour starts, but I would like to get there even earlier, in case of a larger number of people wishing to take the tour
(please note that the tour is also open to the general public, not just the EOC).
Therefore, we will start meeting 30 minutes before the tour departure, ie. meet from 1:00PM onwards

Please note that for starters I am pegging the number of sign-ups to 8 people.
If there was to be a lot of sign-ups for this event and we were all to turn up, in addition to a significant number of the general public, then things could get a bit tight on the bus!
If there is still some interest from EOC members after we reach 8 sign-ups (ie. if people are going on the waiting list), then I can contact ETS towards the end of the week to get an idea of the overall numbers signed up on the tour at that point.

Tour Length: approximately two hours.

Cost: $5.00/person.

To recognise me at the meeting place, I will be wearing my yellow EOC cap, or you can check out my profile:
