autograph depending on the guest. There are a few that don't charge, but it's
rare.
Can I wear a costume?
You definitely should wear your costume. That's what the show is all about. Be
sure to enter our costume contest being held on Sunday afternoon. We encourage
costumes and co-play throughout the course of the weekend! The only rules we

friendly convention.

Where do I park?
There is some parking at the Holiday Inn International, but it goes very
quickly. If you are staying at the Holiday Inn you shouldn't have a problem
getting a spot though. If you are not staying at the Holiday Inn there are many
parking areas nearby. Holiday Inn will be limiting there parking exclusive to paid
guests of the hotel because of the size of the convention. We suggest that
you take advantage of the I-Drive Trolley.

carpool or find someone to share a room with, how can I contact other attendees?
