Hi folks, Please try to attend Dr. Jones' hearing in Hartford this Thursday, September 7th.
Dr. Jones will be testifying at this hearing. (Again, as hard as it may be, we will need to sit silently - with our presence being the sign of our total support).
The hearing will start at 9am in the Legislative Office Building at 300 Capitol Avenue, Hartford at 9:00a.m. in Room 1E.
Greyhound and Peter Pan busses and Amtrak trains stop within a very short cab ride from the Legislative Office Building (or walking distance for those who can).
If you want to arrive the day before, you might want to stay at the Days Inn in East Hartford.
The following borrows from Tincup's extensive research from previous hearings:
HOTEL: Days Inn- East Hartford, CT 1-860-289-4950. 333 Roberts Street East Hartford, CT 06108
If you make a reservation at the hotel, please let them know you belong to the Lyme group. The room rate is now $79 plus tax for a two bedded double room. - probably a total of about $45 for each person. I will be trying to negotiate a lower price for us, but can't guarantee that I"ll succeed.
Cab ride from train station or bus station to the Days Inn in East Hartford, CT (approx 3 miles) is approximately $14.00, plus tip. Cost can be shared if others are riding along.
FOOD: Nick's Pizza... 527-1111 open late and they deliver. Good deal if you are tired and don't want to go out. Big menu selection. Menu was at front desk at the East Hartford Days Inn.
Margarita's Mexican Restaurant- across the street from the EAST Hartford Days Inn 860-289-7212
CAB: Cab ride.. Dial a Ride Taxi- 860-796-8105..
I hope to see you there. Ellen
