Hi all,
I just decided I want to try and get to the Chacmool Conference at Calgary.
I am currently living in Seattle. I am looking for a ride to Calgary
or a shared expense split on a rental car.
If anyone is interested, please respond off of the forum to me at:
sullivangracek at gmail.com
I will also be looking to figure out housing for the weekend.
Best,
Grace Sullivan
