[bsdcan-announce] BSDCan 2016 - party & newcomers

[Dan Langille]

Hello,

In this note:

* The Party
* New comers session


The Party

This year, we return to Lowertown Brewery, the same location as last year.
Your ticket is just $30, but if you don't have one, or need one for someone 
else, please send an an email to info at bsdcan.org <mailto:info at bsdcan.org> with subject 
"Closing Party".  This will help us with numbers and you will receive your ticket[s]
during registration pickup.  NOTE: If you've purchased a party ticket or already told
me you need a one, I've got you covered, and there is no need to email.

The closing party occurs on Saturday night, after the closing session.  It's a short walk
to the Lowertown Brewery.

Can't remember if you bought a ticket? Look for "Closing Party (Saturday night): $30.00"
in an email titled "BSDCan 2016 - user registration".

orientation and mentorship' session on Thursday night. Show up in room
1160 of Desmarais Hall any time between 6 and 9 PM, where experienced
