Title: Questions about CJC.
Post by: BHMike on June 14, 2011, 06:22:15 PM
Not that I need to add to my workload for this week - but if anyone has any questions pertaining to the con this weekend, please post them here.

One of the staff should be able to answer it for you, that is - if it's not already posted at www.canadianjoecon.com (http://www.canadianjoecon.com)

Will we have free parking again this year?  Both Friday and Saturday?

If you Pre-Ordered with a Con Set, is it possible to do the Early Admission at 7:30am? If so, what will be the cost (if any)?

Will the Hotel be ready and stock up there ATM full of cash this year?  They ran out last year. I know this is not "your" problem but the dealers will love you if get them stock them up!

The site (Canadianjoecon.com) already addresses the Saturday parking. I would assume Friday is the same, but I have sent an email in to my hotel rep to find out for sure.

Of course you can. It would be a $10.00 extra charge (which, you can also do Friday night included as well) since the pre-ordered con sets include your basic admission for Saturday.

I addressed this before signing off on having the Convention return to the Sheraton. If the machine is out of money, simply tell the front desk and it will be re-filled within 15 minutes.

So the Pre-Reg con set - we'd have to pay $10 more to get in Friday, yes?  How soon can we get in Saturday?

Is there anything we have to do for the free parking? ie. last year there was a clip board passed around the line for us to list our plates, is it the same thing this year?  Can we submit our plates ahead of time? (maybe something to add in next years registration form?)

Well i cannot speak for all dealers, or CJC itself, but i live in a boarder town, so i do not mind taking US currency.

That time (Saturday) should be posted at www.canadianjoecon.com (http://www.canadianjoecon.com). Band has it right.

Neo, you need to learn to read the posts and site correctly. Parking is $7.50 on Saturday. I said I would assume Friday is the same. There is no mention of free parking anywhere in my posts.

HOWEVER, I just got off the phone and there is NOW free parking for BOTH days.
You will need to submit your license plate once you enter the convention. WE aren't responsible for it, therefore we won't be looking after it or "taking" plate ID's now, or in the future.

Yes, U.S. currency is accepted AT PAR. $1.00 U.S. will equal $1.00 Canadian. I would assume dealers would be the same way.
