Dress

Plan to wear comfortable clothing for the Friday tour and workshops. We can’t know the climate control systems so suggest you dress in layers that will allow you to adjust if it is too warm or cold. The Exhibit Hall Opening Reception is not a fancy event, and you’ll be on your feet visiting most of the time, so comfortable shoes are recommended.

On Saturday we will be spending the day in the exhibit hall and going to exhibitor learning sessions. Wear comfortable shoes! The Opening Session and Keynote Addresses, as well as the Membership Meeting, are being held in the Convention Center which is attached to the Marriott. Show your CSLA spirit by wearing your conference T-shirt on Saturday to the Membership Meeting. We are going to take a group picture after the meeting. The T-shirt can easily be slipped over a polo shirt or blouse. There will be a small number of T-shirts available for $10 if you didn’t get a free one with Early Bird Full Conference Registration. If you are attending the Presidents’ Reception at Gordon Biersch on Saturday evening you will want to have a jacket. The event is a short walk from the hotel and it is in an outdoor covered patio.

Sunday will be a full day of concurrent sessions so you’ll want to wear comfortable clothes and a light sweater or jacket in case the rooms are chilly. Sunday evening’s CYRM/Author/Illustrator Banquet is usually dressy. We have Lifetouch Photography coming and we invite you to participate in individual and group pictures during the Section Meet & Greet before the banquet.

Finally, Monday is our Leadership Day. We are inviting experts from a wide variety of organizations to participate, and business casual attire is encouraged.
