I'm in for this. I'll have my car since I am driving to Philly this year. I have room for 4 other people in my car (if we decide to drive).

A few minor changes:

Friday's session times adjusted to match room availability;
Sunday's room changed;
Missing room numbers added.

As to the late release of this schedule, the responsibility lies solely with me, and not with US Lacrosse or anyone else on the training committee. If you feel the need to vent your frustration over this, talk to me this weekend.
