Hi,

I have some additional information about getting to Red Hat on Saturday, 
thanks to our wonderful Red Hat host, Michael Hrivnak.

Directions
Parking this weekend is $7 in all parking garages on Wilmington St, 
including the one in Red Hat Tower, due to special events. (Red Hat does 
not control the parking garage.) Street parking will be free and 
plentiful, especially at 9am, but leave a few extra minutes to find a 
space.

The Annex has a separate entrance, not in the main Red Hat lobby. From the 
main entrance to Red Hat Tower, proceed east on Davie St. (toward Blount), 
and look to your right as you approach Blount St. There will be an 
entrance marked "The Annex at Red Hat Tower" at 190 E Davie St.

If you park in the garage, there is an elevator in the North-East corner. 
Take it to ground level, and when you exit, the Annex will be immediately 
to your right.

Best,
Jack
