MAY FIELDTRIP - HEADS UP EVERYONE!

4/27/2014

Below is the information from Bob Panick about our May field trip to the Matthei Botanical Gardens.  It is May 31st with a alternate rain date of June 1.  I will ask Bob if he has scoped out a place for us to have lunch and we will discuss all of it at our first meeting in May.



Bob Panick48 minsThe club outing for this month is the University of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens. http://www.lsa.umich.edu/mbg/

The date/time info is:
• Meet up – Sears parking lot in Lincoln Park
• Time – 7:00 AM. Yes this is early, but this will put us at ...
the gardens about 8:00 before the distractions and the wind pick up.
• Date – May 31th
• Alternate Date – June 1st.
• We will use the alternate date if weather is bad. Notifications
will be through Facebook.


Address: 1800 N. Dixboro Rd., Ann Arbor, MI 48105

They have started a parking fee with kiosks at $1.40/hour, with a maximum of $5.

If you haven’t been here before the main attractions are a beautiful outdoor garden, walking trails through several kinds of wooded areas, and a greenhouse (Conservatory). The two main areas of interest to us are going to likely be macro and landscape.

The gardens are open sunrise until sunset. Tripods are allowed, but like anywhere else be considerate of blocking walking areas.

The conservatory is open 8:30 – 4:30, they used to ask for a $5 donation, but that may have been removed with the new parking fee. Tripods aren’t allowed in the conservatory during peak hours on Saturday or Sunday.

Ok, so I forgot about lunch . There is a Big Boy not too far away at Plymouth Road and US-23. If you feel a bit more adventuresome we could go to Zingerman's deli in Terrytown (a neighborhood in downtown AA). There is also a small farmer's market across the street from Zingerman's that's open until 3:00. We might just fine a few more things to take pictures of.
