Dinner at the Red Lion Restaurant

The workshop banquet will be held Tuesday evening at the Red Lion Restaurant. Originally built and established in 1870 and nestled in the mountain canyons outside of Boulder, CO, the Red Lion offers a unique and pleasant atmosphere for our evening dinner and social. We will begin with an outdoor reception where attendees can enjoy appetizers and drinks along the creek-side pathways, and conclude with a banquet dinner. The restaurant specializes in wild game and offers selections of beef, chicken and fish. Guests of all ages are welcome for an additional banquet fee.

We will meet Wednesday 6:30-7pm in the Tesla Motors show room to check out Tesla Roadsters and to announce COMPEL 2010 Best Paper Awards.
