UPDATE: Please note the hotel is under new management, so it's very possible new rules will apply this year.
These were last year's rules: We are also in charge of flyers that are distributed at the convention. Because anybody can see the flyers that are put down in the lobby (and elsewhere), remember to keep the content appropriate. Use ONLY low tack tape (masking tape) to post flyers in appropriate places. UPDATE: Please note that the hotel has undergone extensive renovations and posting of flyers will be limited - nothing on wallpaper, painted surfaces, etc. so plan your flyers (or door decorations) accordingly. Flyers placed with duct tape, packing tape, will be removed and tossed. Please limit yourself to ONE stack in the lobby atrium area (once the convention begins) as this gives space for other fans to put down their flyers, as well as lessens confusions for fans who wonder if they picked up that flyer. Areas will be marked for Fanzines, Conventions, Books, etc.
Please note that we do not actually 'get' the hotel until Friday, so please refrain from putting up flyers (in elevators, atrium, corridors, etc.) until the hotel staff deems it is appropriate. If the hotel staff puts up notices in regards to posting flyers, PLEASE obey them. This is to respect the other guests who are staying in the hotel. Please note that the con staff will post designated flyers on the pillars in the atrium, so do not post to them until we put up the notices. Thanks.
Also, if you find a flyer objectionable, inform the con staff. Removing the flyer yourself or discarding stacks is inappropriate and can result in a revoked membership.
The programming grid is now done. We will probably do some 'tweaking' at the con, but you can see the finished product here. You see what topics are available from the first phase here in case you want to fill in an empty slot at the con
OPEN NOW. The convention offers a Party Suite for use by all registered attendees. They are available in two-hour blocks on the Friday-Sunday of the convention.

If you don't make that deadline, we will accept them via mail until May 16th but they will not be in the program book.
