He will also be bringing several demo lenses for a first-hand look at them! This session will be part of a larger session (featuring multiple folks) focused on discussing creative solutions to frustrating problems with glasses, goggles, tints, contacts,

***For the airport shuttle information (to and/or from the airport) we recommend GO Riteway:
The cost for a single person is about $24 each way. It is about $30 each way for 2 people traveling together, so about $6 increments per person for family traveling together after the first $24.
