The 2015 World Meeting of Families announced that the Papal Visit Playbook will be available to the public on Monday. It is a comprehensive online guide for residents across the region to assist in planning for the papal weekend.

For Spanish speakers, organizers said some parts of the guide will be translated into Spanish.

The resource provides a wide range of information, including a complete outline of the events; recommendations on how residents can participate; transportation options; special events available to residents in advance of Pope Francis’ arrival; emergency notification information; pet care considerations; city service information, and additional resources to support residents.

According to organizers, the online guide will continue to be updated with new information including the addition of recommended walking maps, special events and important transportation/travel notifications.

Donna Crilley Farrell, executive director for the World Meeting of Families advised residents to sign up at worldmeeting2015 in order to receive notification of its publication and continued updates.  Those with limited access to the internet can obtain a copy through The Philadelphia Inquirer and The Philadelphia Daily News. The newspapers will print and distribute a copy of the Papal Visit Playbook 10 to 14 days in advance of Pope Francis’ arrival.

Papal Visit Playbook will be available at worldmeeting2015.
