May 10 - NCAS SkepTour 2014 -- A Skeptic's Field Guide to the National Capital Area (Reservation Requested)

Following the success of the inaugural NCAS SkepTour* in May 2013, the National Capital Area Skeptics continues to compile information to publish in a skeptic's field guide to the area. This isn't just the DC edition of Tobin's Spirit Guide -- we also want to include items with scientific, pseudo-scientific, and cultural significance to skeptics.

On Saturday, May 10, at 1:30 pm we will be taking it to the streets for a leisurely 2.5 mile walk featuring highlights from the guide.  We will meet in front of the National Theatre, 1321 Pennsylvania Ave NW.  (Nearest Metro stops: Metro Center and Federal Triangle.).  (Look for Chip and Grace Denman, who should be holding something with our Skeptical Eye logo.)

The walk is estimated to take 90 minutes, but we will walk at whatever pace is suitable.  At the end, anyone who wishes to refresh themselves with us at Bar Charley (1825 18th St NW) may do so.

Note: in case of bad weather, the walking tour will be rescheduled. Please check www.ncas.org for last-minute information.

The tour is free, and all are welcome. We encourage you to take Metro -- we start and end near Metro stops.

Please RSVP to SKepTour@ncas.org so we can know that everyone has arrived before we begin the tour.
