1. Transportation The facility is easy to get to from the airport via the Metrorail light rail system, with stations at the airport terminals and just around the corner from our building.  We do not recommend renting a car due to parking headaches, but if one chooses to rent a car, there are parking garages available that are not terribly expensive (e.g. $6 - $8 per day, no in and out).

1. Lodging Within walking distance is the Parkway Hotel (83% thumbs up and ranked #23 out of 123 hotels in St. Louis on tripadvisor.com).  If we were to reserve a room block, the Parkway would be very convenient.  The Parkway is affiliated with the medical campus, and one can use enclosed skyways to walk to our building (though the routing is a bit confusing).  There are other good hotels in the area.  Fred Prior likes the Chase Park Plaza, even though it is more expensive than the Parkway, and a several blocks longer walk.  A nearby Drury Inn said that they would provide a shuttle if enough people stayed there.  And of course there are several downtown hotels that are only a few Metrorail stops away.

1. Food Plan on having breakfast at your hotel before the meeting. Please email the organizers if you have any allergies or dietary restrictions. 

1. Optional Activities in the Area Fred did offer to host an outing to his country club (Meadowbrook), if there is interest.  The pool would not be open until Memorial Day (May 26th), but golf, tennis, and of course excellent food would be available.  While a country club outing would not be inexpensive, it would be less expensive than many other similar, high quality outings.  Other outing options could include a Cardinals game, if they are in town, or any of the museums and gardens in the area.
