Wednesday Collaborative Meeting


The Meeting on Veteran's Day will take place at Punahou in the robotics room there. As the campus is rather large and confusing, here's several maps that should help you locate the room. Also, as parking may be kind of limited, I recommend some of you carpool, because it is most likely that you would be parking at the pickup, and it's not a huge place. Maybe 10 cars max could park there. We should be fine. 

How to get to the Robotics Room once you've gotten to Punahou:


If there's no Parking.

How to get to Punahou from the East: (assuming that's where all you live)

Exit off the town bound freeway onto Wilder and keep following Wilder past 7-11 . You'll see a whole bunch of apartments and houses and such. Keep on going until you see the Night Blooming Cereus creeping along a low stone wall. It's the cactus-y looking plant. To get up to the middle school, which is where the Robotics room is, look for two large square stone pillars with some lighting fixture atop each. Once you turn into this driveway, go up the steep hill, turn around the traffic island with two monkeypod trees on it, and down to the 7-8 grade pickup. There will be signs and sometimes a traffic officer. This is where you want to go. It has an awning shelter thing and an enormous cement staircase going up to a courtyard. If you go up the first set of stairs, the robotics room is right in front of you. We'll have the doors open because there's no AC on the weekends. There might be a person stationed near the gate to the Middle School from Wilder. 

Oh, and for more detailed instructions from your house, use this link:

The Address for the Main Gate (near the highschool) is 1601 Punahou St, Honolulu, HI 96822

If you can't find parking or there's some event and they tell you not to park at the pickup,
you can alternatively go down the ramp, back onto Wilder, and reenter via the Main Gate at the
corner of Wilder and Punahou. If you go along the road around the field, you'll eventually come
to a parking lot where you should be able to park. Then, just walk up the car ramp you went
down earlier.
