Kerri Vercellini will be making herself available to anyone who would like to stay later for unstructured social time with like-minds; including getting dinner together (delivered or go into a local restaurant), possibly explore the refuge more, and hopefully even gather around a firepit on Plum Island at the end of the evening (weather permitting!). People can stay as long as they would like, and we would decide as a group how the rest of the evening will go based on who sticks around!

This event is hosted at PITA Hall on Plum Island in Newbury, MA (which abuts borders with Newburyport, MA). There is parking for roughly 35 cars behind the building. We encourage carpooling to ensure as many people as possible can park at the facility.
