Carpool Signup Sheet
In an effort to assist local attendees with getting to the Symposium this year, we have set up a simple page using the Carpool website that can help you find a ride with someone coming from the same place as you. Simply go to the page and either sign your car up, or see if anyone is driving from nearby you.
