Go Congress Joseki: Checking In/Registering

How can I make my registration go quickly and smoothly?  The easiest way to speed up the registration process is to register for tournaments and events, turn in any paperwork, and pay your remaining balance before you arrive.  You will be able to make changes once you arrive, but registration will go much more quickly if your changes are already made.
 Where is registration? Registration will be in Corwin Pavilion (r), the Congress’ main playing area. 
What time does registration start? Registration will officially open at 10am on Saturday, July 30.  If anyone plans to arrive before that time and would like to check in, please email registrar@gocongress.org or call 805-769-USGO to make arrangements ahead of time. 
Where can I pick up my keys? After you receive your room assignment, you may pick up your keys at your residence hall.  Volunteers will be available with maps to answer any questions that you may have. In addition to our regular ongoing go news and updates, the E-Journal is publishing a special series of updates this week on the 2011 U.S. Go Congress, which begins next Saturday, July 30 in Santa Barbara, CA. If you have any questions about the  Congress, email Lisa Scott at lisa.scott@gocongress.org and watch the E-Journal this week.
 If you prefer the weekly EJ to more regular updates, you can always change the preference in the “UPDATE YOUR PROFILE” link at the bottom of every EJ.
