1.  Arrive early.  We have a full schedule and need everyone at the Westin no later than 10am!

2.  Bring a camera (or make sure you know how to use the one on your phone).  The views from the top of the Westin are sure to impress and you may also want to share the event with your friends.

3.  It’s not necessary to bring a laptop.  Your laptop can’t listen and share – only you can.  That’s why we invited YOU to attend and not your laptop.

4.  Dress in comfortable attire.  Wear flip flops if you want.  Just don’t wear your company-issued name tag.

5.  Change your voice mail to say, “I am attending a conference and will return your call as soon as it’s over”.  Your clients will understand.

6.  Bring business cards to share.

7.  There are lots of great lunch spots at Town Center.  Be sure to check them out and think about where you want to have lunch:  http://www.vabeachtowncenter.com/dine/

8.  Thank our sponsors.  Without them, we wouldn’t have this event.

9.  Make a list of 5 things you want to learn about and bring the list to the event.

10.  Try to stay for the entire Bar Camp.  You will be happy you did!
