into downtown Santa Cruz, stay to your right, going toward
Mission Street, rather than onto Ocean Street. When you
get to the light at Mission Street and highway 1, turn right
onto Mission. Now stay on Mission until the light at Mission
and Bay. Take a left onto Bay, then watch for California
AVENUE on your right, just past where it intersects with
California STREET on the left. Turn right onto California
AVENUE and continue several blocks until you see the
Village School and Meeting Center on your right. Look for
the purple sign. Enter through the gate to the left of the
main house, then go in the sliding glass doors. Go up the
stairs and remove your shoes before entering the meeting
room.
