In a switch from past years, we're going to give everyone an hour to go out to lunch. There are several local haunts, fast food, Applebees, and a nice buffet and salad bar in the Giant Eagle grocery store cafe. We'll have a sheet with nearby options. You may also bring your lunch if you wish. There is a refrigerator (but no microwave).
Of course, feel free to bring any snacks to share. Can't go wrong with chips or chocolate!
