    I emailed guest services and got the following note back:

    The Anaheim Convention Center allows you to bring your own snacks in your backpack. However, no ice chests or large containers are allowed.

    @AdorableOcelot this thread will be the main line of communication. Phone numbers would not be a good idea as that is not monitered by Sandlot and we cannot protect players.

  7. The suggestion was to exchange such in convo, not in the open, between parents only. Now, as for that, we would have a problem with that act, because we cannot know it IS the parent communicating. So, no phone # would be the rule for now. If c0w or Cheracc volunteer to accept numbers, via private convo, I suspect that would be OK, but we'll have to hear it from them.

    This says the wifi is free and give directions to use it.

    Recent Enhancements 2015

    A $2.5 million upgrade to the convention center's Wi-Fi network system makes it one of the most technically advanced convention centers in the U.S.

    The newly installed high-density network consists of nearly 700 access points throughout the facility. This first-of-its-kind system increases the amount of coverage and bandwidth available to ACC meeting and event attendees.

    The Anaheim Convention Center is now the first convention center on the west coast with 10-gigabit Internet connectivity.

    1. Go to the location on your smart phone or computer where you connect to Wi-Fi services
    2. Click on "Anaheim Free Wi-Fi" in the list of connection choices
    3. Click on the "Continue to Free Internet" button

    Maybe there could be a certain time, or room that we could meet up at if we want? If so, which day and which event? It is starting soon, and I'm so excited to meet up with you guys if it is possible! @c0wg0d@AllTheOtherPeopleThatWillBeAttending

    Thanks! :)

    cheracc, c0wg0d, and I (and some of our families) met tonight.

    We decided to see how busy the exterior around Hall A looks tomorrow. If that looks like a not-too-crowded place, then we might try to use that as our meeting place.

    We were thinking of meeting Sunday morning before the Convention Center opens.

    We would love to talk with any of you, if you find us wandering around the venue!
