Workshop hours are planned during the day through early evening on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The actual times may vary among the facilities. Throughout the weekend, do not give anything to any inmate and do not accept anything from any inmate. Be sure your car is fully locked up when you leave it, otherwise the staff will find you later and take you out to do so. The facilities provide meals for outside participants during the workshop.
Vegetarian meals are available.
Make this wish known first thing Friday morning. The best results are obtained by looking at the workshop weekend as though it was a retreat from your usual life. Leave all your notions of the prison outside the doors when you enter the facility.
