If you are not staying at the hotel... you can pickup vouchers at the registration desk throughout the weekend. Please be sure to let the hotel know when you are checking in that your room is suppose to be in the AKA Grands room block.

BANQUET:
The banquet doors will be open at 7:00pm and dinner and the awards ceremony will begin at 7:30. Everybody must pickup their banquet ticket wristband at registration prior to attending the banquet. This year your banquet packet will have a voucher in it that lists exactly what awards you will be getting so there is no confusion. Please hold on to this. You will need it at the banquet. IF YOU ARE A LARGE GROUP WANTING TO SIT TOGETHER... PLEASE ARRIVE EARLY. WE CAN NOT GUARANTEE THAT LARGE PARTIES WILL BE ABLE TO SIT TOGETHER IF YOU DO NOT ARRIVE EARLY.
