You can come earlier than 6 pm if you want to avoid the rush at the kitchen. We meet in the big ballroom, and the presentation will begin around 7:15 to 7:30. You are also welcome to arrive just for the presentation.

Here are a couple more photos that Gavin took in Ecuador. There will be plenty more at Birds & Beers!
