Slice of Pi #1
Volunteers Needed
Volunteering is a fun and easy way to find out what's going on at the con, get cool freebies, earn a free membership for next year, and rack up brownie points with the con staff. We are always in need of a few extra folks to help us out. Sign up for volunteer hours at The One Desk.
Like what you see and want to get more involved? Got a great idea for how things could be even better? We're also recruiting staff for Pi-Con 2012. Talk to a staff member (wearing the blue tags on their badges) or next year's ConChair, Tom Traina.
T-shirts
Our spiffy new shirts, designed by Sarah Morrison, are on sale at The One Desk for $15. You can also earn a shirt by volunteering for the convention for six or more hours. Vintage shirts are also on sale for $5.
Weather Forecast
We're in for a pretty wet weekend; showers are likely all day Saturday, with possible tropical storm conditions on Sunday as Hurricane Irene moves in. Slice of Pi will continue to keep you updated on the latest forecast. Please take the weather into account when making your plans for departure. If you would like to extend your stay rather than brave the weather, the hotel has rooms available and will honor the Pi-Con rate for an additional night. Let the hotel know as soon as possible if you want to extend your stay.
Late Night Food
This year the hotel kitchen will be taking orders until 1:45 AM.
No Outside Food
There is no outside food allowed in the hotel function space. Only hotel food is allowed.
Internet Access
The hotel wireless code for the weekend is 698725.
Policy for Signs and Fliers
Please do not hang anything on the walls UNLESS
1) it is with blue painters tape which is not visible on the front of your sign,
2) it is on a static sheet OR

Supplies for hanging things are available. Please ask a staff member if you want to use them.
