I think that, for the most part, people would be willing to drive.  If
someone wanted to attend and didn't have a car, we could arrange for
carpooling.  I also think, that with the event not being in the loop,
that street parking wouldn't be too difficult to find.

Also, although I proposed a Tap House for the event, we haven't really
been so much of a "drinking crowd."  I don't think having/not having
alcohol available should factor in to our decision.

If you could reach out to your instructor just to get some info, that
would be helpful.

If other people have other ideas, though, please do continue to
suggest them.  I don't think we need to limit ourselves to this venue
for right now.
