 Louise Estabrook KN4HVG is interested in attending our next club meeting on September 12th, but she has transportation and mobility issues,  She uses a foldable walker, and she also has a service dog who travels with her.She does not have a car, and she is wondering if anyone would be able to pick her up and then bring her home again after the club meeting.Please let me know if you would be interested in helping Louise out in this regard.
Thanks,

 Hi!I’d like to come to the September 12th meeting at Eisenhower rec center  
If some kind person could drive me, that would be very appreciated!
I do need to tell you about my needs first-I’m not overweight at all but I still have a rather large footprint. I have a foldable walker that fits in most car trunks but I would need help putting it in. And I have a large service dog. He’s very well behaved and very sweet   He would be very content sitting with me in the back seat. I would bring a blanket to protect the car seat  
If you can’t find a ride, that’s okay, I’d totally understand. Just please let me know either way .Picture for cuteness!Louise
