FOOD: Outside food IS allowed. Several food trucks will be on site with food available for purchase. Picnic tables and lawn space are available for eating lunch. Food vendor lunch lines in the past have been long, so consider bringing lunch, beverages, and snacks so that you don't have to spend a long time in a food line.

QUESTIONS? Look for white lab coats! These volunteers are able to answer questions. Spanish speaking volunteers wear orange "se habla Espanol" sashes.
