Special Extras

Meals: If you have any special dietary requirements for your meals at Convention, we can make arrangements with the hotel.  Please let us know if you require vegetarian, gluten free, avoid food allergies, or any other needs.  There is a section on the registration form for this.  You can also email our CBS/hotel liaison, Larissa Williams, with specifics.

Banquet Choices: The Awards Ceremony banquet meal will be a plated dinner.  You have a choice of: New York Steak (fire grilled New York steak with gorgonzola demi, served with mashed potatoes and fresh seasonal vegetables), Grilled Salmon (oven broiled salmon filet with lemon caper sauce, served with mashed potatoes and fresh seasonal vegetables), or Chicken Marsala (seared chicken with mushrooms and tomato wine sauce, served with rice pilaf  and fresh seasonal vegetables). If you require a vegetarian or special meal, please mark it on the registration form and let Larissa known.

Side Trips: We will be doing a special side trip to Monterey Bay Aquarium on Wednesday before Convention.  Pricing is separate and individual, generally around $40.  Do not include this money with registration, but bring it with you to pay at the door when we're at the Aquarium.  We are also thinking about a baseball game on Wednesday night, and another side trip on Friday, location to be determined.  Mark on the registration form if you'd like to go to either.

Class Sponsorships:  Putting on Convention is expensive!  Please help support the host club by sponsoring an Awards Class for $20.  Let us know which classes of the 2013-2014 show class list you which to sponsor, and we'll put your name on special tags by that class during the convention and you will be listed in the convention booklet as a proud sponsor for the convention.  And you'll have our greatest thanks! :)

CBS Airport Shuttle: The hotel does not have an airport shuttle, so CBS is running our own regular pick-up and drop-offs at the San Jose International Airport (within reasonable time frames).  When you have reserved your flights, contact our CBS/airport liaison, Nelson Snook, and we will coordinate the schedule.
