~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Agenda:
* There will be an overview from the high rise,
* a tour of the linear accelerator, and
* a tour of either Collider Detector Facility or D0 (one of the sites
within the ring, or main accelerator which does very similar work, but
using a different scheme for particle detection).
Though these particles are very small, it takes very large pieces of
equipment, and a good deal of power to unlock their mysteries
* Two scientists will speak to the group and answer any questions you
might have.
* The end of the tour will be at either CDF or D0,
* Then we will return to The Wilson Hall for a meeting.
Room WH2SE from 7:00-8:00 pm
* Food will be provided.

How to enter/exit Fermilab:

The entry tickets are available seven days a week during hours
the Laboratory is open to the public. The entry ticket
allows the holder to exit Fermilab through the same entry point the
ticket was dispensed from.
If the ticket holder wants to exit through the opposite gate (i.e.,
enters at Pine St. and wants to exit through the Batavia Rd. gate) they
can stop at Wilson Hall and obtain a ticket for the Batavia Rd gate. The
entry tickets can be used by members of the general public or by
employees, users, or contractors who do not have an assigned tag
or card in their possession. Visitors requiring access after hours may
call the Communication Center, via the intercom at each gate, to request
access. The Communication Center can activate the gates remotely.
