Other Info
Here’s what to do if the room not set for dancing when you arrive: Call 617-253-1500 and ask for the CAC Night Manager. When you reach the night manager, say you are with Tech Squares and mention which room we have reserved. Politely explain the problem or what’s missing. We generally want a stage with one 6-foot folding table on it, and it should be set up on one end of the hall. If we are not in Lobdell, we also need two other folding tables — one for gate and the other for refreshments (in Lobdell, we use the existing tables for these purposes). For the tables and chairs in Lobdell, you can explain that we asked for them to be cleared in our room reservation. After understanding the situation, the night manager will likely say someone is on his way. Please remember to thank the night manager for the help!
Thanks for helping with this very important job!
