Before, during and after the Festival:
  1. Please be on time to set up. We will have Trailblazers again this year *
  2. Please do not leave early.  It is very disruptive when someone leaves early.  AND there may be one reader who is looking just for YOU.  It has happened!
  3. We know that it gets cold in the building, so bring a sweater or jacket in case you do get cold.  We are unable to regulate the temperature.
  4. Please do not eat at your table.  We will provide an Author Snack Area for your convenience. Drinks are OK.
  5. If you need a table sitter, we will try to provide one, but maybe your new (or old) friend at the table next to you might help you out.
   Tables will be assigned and emailed to you by August 25, 2020.  Tables will be assigned on a first come, first serve basis.  (No stampeding, please!  I will be riding "drag"!)
* Trailblazers can set up August 25, 2020 before the Book Trails Dinner.
