Updated Conference Program  
Last Update: October 8, 2010

Arrival & Departure: Find below the conference program. We recommend getting flights into San Francisco on Friday, October 8, in time to arrive by 4:00 pm. You won't want to miss the event planned for Friday night!

Transportation: BART trains provide very easy access from either the San Francisco (SFO) or Oakland (OAK) airports. If you fly back home on Sunday, October 10, try to schedule your flight no earlier than 4:00 pm. The luncheon will be finished by 2:00 pm at the latest and that will provide time to travel to the airport.

Program

Note: All conference rooms are on the 3rd floor of the Westin Hotel unless noted.
