2012 IPMS/USA National Convention Update

[Anthony Leger]

Hello fellow IPMS members. As we are closing in on the 2012 IPMS/USA National
Convention we have put some significant updates on the website that I would like
to bring to everyones attention.

First we have added a FAQ section to the homepage www.ipms2012.org . Here you
will find some of the most commonly asked questions that we have been receiving.

Next area that has been updated is the volunteers section. We rely on help from
volunteers to make this a successful show. We have set-up a registration page so
you can sign-up for a particular date, time and area that you would like to help
with. One very special request from our Registrar, is if you have any working
knowledge of doing walk up registrants with the CMS your help would be greatly
appreciated. Here is the link for you to sign up:

Here is the email for the volunteer coordinator if you would like to contact
hime directly OzzieL@ipms2012.org
 
Trophy Sponsorships, Another area that we could use your help with. If you would
like to help sponsor a trophy package please go to the link below. We also have
pictures of the trophy on the page.

One question for everyone. Do you like standing in lines? No. Well we suggest
that you pre-register for the convention. There are two ways that you can do
this. One is online, the other is by snail mail. If you are pre-registered for
the convention all you have to do is walk up to the will call window and you
will be ready to go.  Here is the link where this can be accomplished

FREE TRANSPORTATION  and staying at one of Disney Resorts on Property, please go
