Meals.  Breakfast is provided at the hotel.  You can pay $5.00 for a home-made lunch at Tillers, or you can bring your own lunch.  For the Thursday field trip to the Tabor Hill Winery and Restaurant, you may pay more for lunch.  There are many restaurants within walking distance of the hotel, featuring a variety of cuisine and a diverse price range.  For those who wish to explore the city, downtown Kalamazoo also has a vibrant restaurant scene.  We will provide a list of restaurants when you arrive.  For Friday dinner we will host a picnic celebration at Tillers.
