Our fall kickoff convention committee meeting, open to all interested Arisians, is on Sunday September 8th at the Westin Waterfront Hotel in the Stone meeting room. If you are interested in participating this year, this is a good way to find out what we are up to.

Following the 1pm Concomm meeting, the Boston Area Rape Crisis Center (BARCC) will be running a training session intended for all of Arisia's interested participants. The presentation is Sexual Assault 101. Facilitators will be speaking about the prevalence of sexual assault, its impacts, and what perpetration looks like. It's a fantastic framework for new individuals, and it's information we would like all Arisia participants to have access to. Even if you have attended a prior BARCC talk, we ask that you consider joining us for this informative presentation by volunteers of BARCC.

We'll be discussing plans for Arisia 2014 including new staffing. More details are here including agenda. If you'd like to volunteer for something this year, this is a good time to talk to people about it.

We look forward to seeing you!

As I posted to the staff announcements list:

Many in the Arisia community, including myself, are also involved with
the SCA Barony of Carolingia. As the memorial for Marian of Edwinstowe
is this Sunday afternoon at 2 pm, I have decided to cancel the Arisia
concom meeting in favor of not making others or myself choose between
the two.

I will try to email in the next couple of days with regard to upcoming
schedule and topics to be discussed. In the meantime, be well, my
friends.

The next ARISIA CONCOM meeting will be held this Saturday, April 24th, at 2:00pm at the Westin Boston Waterfront in the Douglas room on the Mezzanine level. The current agenda includes the introductions of the Division Heads appointed so far and a discussion of space allocation in the new hotel.

In addition, Saturday at 12:00pm (noon), previous to the meeting, there will be a guided tour of many of the function room spaces led by one of our contacts at the hotel. Due to a concurrent event not all of the function space is available, but several rooms will be. Seeing the spaces is good information (or refresher) for the space discussion to occur at the meeting, so everyone is encouraged to show up for the tour as well.

ConChair office hours will be held Saturday at 4:00pm, after the meeting. Please see http://2011.arisia.org/ for more information on ConChair office hours.

Attendees are encouraged to use public transportation - the "World Trade Center" stop on the Silver Line is directly next to the hotel. Pay parking is available at the hotel.

With many of the Div Heads now appointed, Saturday's meeting is a great time to jump in if you don't have a "job" for Arisia '11 yet. Plus there will be a raffle with prizes donated by our Writer GoH Kelley Armstrong and Webcomic GoH Shaenon Garrity!
