This year is shaping up to be the biggest and baddest pyArkansas yet! We have 5 tutorial and 19, yep 19, talk proposals in the system! We have more sponsors than ever before, more attendees (91 right now) than ever before, more swag than ever before, and more prizes than ever before. Oh, and you get a t-shirt too, and it's all *FREE* - but you gotta show up. If you haven't registered, please do so, as we cap out at 150 people. Hope to see you all soon.

For lunch on Sat, the cafeteria on campus is going to be closed, so we are all going to have to eat off campus. I dont want people not having a clue where to go and wasting time trying to figure that out. Could someone, or preferable several of you make a group effort to provide me with a list of places and just a quick list of what they are good for? Like I said, this is especially important for Saturday lunch. Any and all input welcome. Thanks Chad -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Message-ID: All, Hello. Work continues on pyArkansas. We have 120 people registered as of today and the schedule will be out as soon as I hear from a speaker or two. I would like to have a get together Friday night somewhere in Conway where those who want to join could eat, enjoy a tasty beverage, stuff swag bags, and most importantly, get to know one another. We have quite a few speakers coming in from out of town, and I'd like to show them a good time. That said, we need a venue for this. Here's what I see us needing: - A room or space of our own - Food and drink would be very nice - Free would be best, obviously - I'm thinking 20-30 people at most would show up for something like this Our conference hotel is the Comfort Inn and Suites on Sanders Street behind Walmart and Southwestern Energy, that general area. Something close to that would be great too, as most of our out of towners will hopefully be staying there as well. Any and all ideas are welcome; I really need the local knowledge on this one, folks.

We still have a few seats (literally) available, a very strong schedule, and great swag and prizes from our wonderfully awesome sponsors . Register today at http://www.pyarkansas.org/registration/!

Message-ID: AWESOME! :o) If you haven't registered yet, but still wish to attend, you can still add yourself to our Waitlist. THIS list will prioritize the order that you could get swag/admission to pyArkansas to take the place of those who were unable to make it. (We will even TRY to accommodate "walk ins" who didn't even digitally sign our Waitlist... though AFTER those on the Waitlist who show up, and only as space allows.) As the law allows for capacity (fire regulations/"Maximum Occupancy"), we'll happily allow anyone and everyone who shoes up to attend, but: 1. Seating goes to Registered participants first 2. Swag may not be ("probably won't be") available for you Whether or not you are registered, please get to the conference and get checked in as early as possible! This will ensure as little distraction and stress as possible for everyone. Hard to believe pyArkansas 2012 is TOMORROW! Cheers, and can't wait to see you all there! -Larry pyArkansas 2012 Team -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
