PLEASE NOTE: There is no food allowed in the auditorium although you are welcome to bring food with you - and certainly try some of the delicious Firefly & Serenity-inspired confections from C&C Cakery - as long as you eat outside the auditorium. Only liquids in containers with lids are allowed inside. For anyone who wishes to stay after the event, we have the Lounge booked until 9 pm and will probably order pizza while we wind down.
Those people who are entering the costume contest, please proceed to the Lounge between Noon and 12:25 so the judges can see your costume and make their decision.
Don't forget to bring lots of cashy money with you, as we don't accept credit cards at this point. There is an ATM in the lobby of the building should you find something so irresistable that you must bid on it. Most of all, enjoy yourselves with old friends and new while you help women and girls less fortunate than we are.

There are still tickets left. Ticket sales at La Fontana will end at noon on Friday and on the blog at midnight. Any tickets left will be available at the door.
A reminder that no food or drink, except for beverages with tops, is allowed in the auditorium, although you are welcome to use the table and chairs set up in the Lounge for that purpose. C&C Cakery will be present with their Firefly-inspired treats for a recommended donation.
The parking lot is paid parking - $2 per hour or a flat rate of $10 from 6 am to 6 pm. After 6 pm, it is a flat rate of $5. They are pretty strict in the lot so if you are staying after 6 to join some of us in the Lounge to order food, please make sure you pay the evening rate.
REMEMBER, all monetary transactions at CSTS Vancouver are cash only. That includes tickets available at the door; limited grab bags ($5); Bingo cards ($1); CSTS 2012 patches (a limited number for a minimum donation of $4); food and auction items. There will also be jars around if you would just like to drop in some change - or bills - as an extra donation.
If you are entering the costume contest, please arrive by 10:30 and go directly to the Lounge where the judges will see you. If you are entering the Superpowers costume contest, you will be asked to fill out a card with your Superpower name, talent, how you would use that ttalent and whether you would fit in with Iron Man, Black Widow and the gang, or whether you plan to aid Bad Horse, the Thoroughbred of Sin!

Schedule, Notes and a Couple of Special Items!
One of our special auction items is currently somewhere in the Canadian postal system. I had asked Jody Houser, who does a couple of online comics, Brick Girl and Cupcake Pow! if we could have a signed print of one of the panels of Cupcake Pow! that would have a lot of significance to Firefly fans - of which Jody herself is one. She agreed, even though she had never done it before, and in the process, the CA Browncoats, who are hosting Joss et al in LA on Saturday night, also requested one. However, Jody assured me that the print we are getting is No 1 of 2. :) There will be a colour copy of it at the auction and we will mail the original to the winning bidder when it finally arrives. Check out Cupcake Pow! and see if you can guess which panel it is.
In addition to the draw for the winner of the quotation contest in the introductory remarks Saturday morning, we also have an e-mail message from Jewel Staite to read. We are so proud to have her as a supporter of our event.
