You can also pay your registration onsite if necessary.
The communal function space will be the oceanfront hospitality house pictured between the two main buildings on their website (https://www.corsaircrossrip.com/). This hospitality house has an open floorplan with a full kitchen on the first floor and three bedrooms on the second floor which are used for breakout rooms / gaming, but there is no sleeping in the hospitality house. There is talk of some tech gear training / experimentation happening this year. (Note: The hospitality house is not handicapped accessible in that there are a handful of stairs up to the first floor and a flight of stairs up to the second floor.)
Vaccination is not required. Masks are optional but request that people be respectful. Eating and drinking outside on the deck is encouraged. Weather permitting we will keep windows open to improve airflow.
Temperatures are predicted to be unpredictable (last year was in the 60s), so dress appropriately. Bring layers.
