hammer out a duty schedule, and make final preparations for our
presence at the Happy Hour event. Members of the TrekTrak

 Star
Trek Night with the Atlanta OutWorlders: "Cold as Ice (The
Andorians)"
8:00 p.m. Friday, August 22, 2008
Hosted by and in the home of Alan Siler
2582 Addison Drive, Doraville GA 30340
MAP
AND DIRECTIONS
Let's join our friends, the Atlanta
OutWorlders, for a night each month that celebrates the
quintessential American science fiction television franchise: Star
Trek. Each month, we'll explore a different theme by seeing
episodes taken from all of the show's TV incarnations: Star Trek,
The Animated Series, The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine,
Voyager and yes... even Enterprise. Few television
shows, particularly sci-fi, have had the impact on American culture
that Star Trek has had.
Driving Directions:
* Take I-85 to the Chamblee-Tucker Rd. exit (that’s the first exit
inside I-285 on the NE side of the city). If you’re traveling N
on I-85, you would turn left onto Chamblee-Tucker.
* Go through the first light, turn right at the second light (Shallowford
Rd).
* Take the immediate next right turn onto Addison Dr.
*Go through the first stop sign; we’re the 5th house on the left.
Mailbox has very reflective numbers. |
