_________________________________________________

There's no Cue Sheet for this one because it's basically the regular Friday Night Skate Route with two exceptions:

1) From the Washington Monument, we will skate to the Jefferson Memorial.  From the Jefferson Memorial, we will hang a right, make a left on Ohio Drive, make another left on Buckeye Drive, and then do the regular Hains Point loop.  This is so our guests can see the twilight view from the Jefferson Memorial.

2) From the Lincoln Memorial we will skate back to the White House.  The official skate then goes back to the hotel.  If you want to go to Froggy Bottom Pub please do so from the White House.  This is to avoid any possibility of confusion about where the official skate ends.

The Friday Night Pajama Skate will leave from the hotel at 10:30pm and from the White House at 10:40pm.

Thanks,
George
