Well It looks like Judy and I are going to finally meet some of you. We have the flights booked and paid for? Air Miles that is. We are also registered, thanks Rene. What Hotels can you recommend for us to stay, hopefully we will be able to stay at the same hotel that some of you are staying. Do I have to register for any seminars or should we just wing it.
I want to do and see as much as I can, Especially take in Bevin Finley and Kelly and such.. I have never been to Consac before so any and all advice will be appreciated.

Don't Air Miles rock!!!! I've used them for all my traveling in the past couple of years. They let me go places I would never consider without. It will be so great to see you and Judy again!

You have to register for the seminars, you can do it online. Mine is called 'basic sign design' or something like that...and Pierre Tardif shares this one with me.
The hotel where we all are is conveniently just across the road, but it fills fast, I'm not sure you'll be able to get a room there now. It's the Double Tree International Plaza on Dixon rd, but there are more hotels just around the block (I'm sure you can Google this)
JUST IN : the limit to register on line is TODAY Tuesday at 5PM, so do it now !
The demo area called the BeaverDam is FREE and accessible for the duration of the trade show. There are however more seminars in adjacent rooms that are more focussed and quieter than than the show-floor. All the seminars are listed on the SAC-ACE website.
For more info, you can e-mail me and I'll do my best to help out !

I must be blind or can't read but I can't seem to find the listing for the seminars.
I do have the Double Tree booked for four nights all the same, I'm arriving in Toronto at around 2 in the afternoon and we are staying until Monday, maybe take the ROM in on Sunday.
