Setup and Teardown

If no other requests for the exhibit room have been made one week prior to the Regional Meeting, then setup will begin Friday evening at 7:30 PM and end at 10:00 PM.

In the past, there has never been a problem with setting up book exhibits on Friday evening.  If the room is reserved, however, exhibitors will have to wait until Saturday morning to set up.  The SWCRS recommends a Friday evening arrival time.  SWCRS representatives will arrive Friday in any case; if the room is available, we will certainly accommodate exhibit setup.
