I am very interested in these presentations. However, I would be coming from Roseville and I don't see well in the dark. So if the weather is bad I wouldn't want to chance it.

Do you have to pre-register?

thanks

I would prefer it but you can pay at the door.
It's very easy to find, you can come across I-94 and get off at Merriman (the airport exit). It's about 2 miles from the airport.
