Food / Drinks
A few light snacks and beverages will be provided by the organizers. Lunch is not provided, but there are several food establishments within walking distance of Warner Hall.
Games can go long in byo-yomi, and there is not a lot of time between rounds, so it may be a good idea to bring your own lunch. Plan ahead so that you can check in 10-15 minutes before each round begins.
Masks COVID / Flu season
You are welcome to wear a mask during the event to reduce the spread of viruses. Masks will not be provided by the event organizers, so please bring your own if you plan to wear one. Please do not attend the event if you are feeling unwell or have any cold or flu symptoms. Thank you!
