Hey Escapaders!

If you booked a King Suite room, your rate may have gone DOWN! Due to an error in the hotel reservation system, some people who booked King Suites for Friday or Saturday nights were charged $10 more per night than they should have been. The hotel has painstakingly fixed all the incorrect rates, so if you booked a King Suite for Friday and Saturday, your total rate may have gone down by as much as $23! To see if your rate went down, check your original email confirmation, then log in to Hilton and compare the total rate now listed on your reservation. If your rate hasn’t changed, then you were booked at the correct amount in the first place. If you booked a different type of room (for example, a Twin Queen), your rate was correct and should be unaffected.

Good news for people who need to park at the hotel but aren’t planning on staying over! The day rate is only $15 a day. When you arrive at the convention, park in the garage lot beneath the hotel. You’ll grab a ticket when entering. Take the ticket to the front desk when you arrive, explain that you’re with Escapade and you need the day rate parking, and they will take care of you. If you’re planning on staying late after the dance or vid show, you may wish to double check the time when “day rate” becomes “overnight”. (Escapade’s overnight rate is $20.)

One of the funnest and funniest events of Escapade is the art auction on Sunday morning. If you’d like to help support Escapade, consider Selling a Service at the auction! There are all kinds of creative options, such as: writing a fanfic, drawing fanart, beta/editing services, a podfic reading, sketching a comic, making a fanvid, or other fun ideas. If you’re the type of person who’s never defaulted on an exchange, We Want You!

Please fill out the form to Sell Yourself at: https://forms.gle/DYp7J6fcnsTAiqyy6

IMPORTANT: Proceeds from this type of auction go entirely to the convention and our chosen charity. Sellers will not receive any of the proceeds from a Service auction.

Dear friends,

The Concom has been monitoring the LA fires and their possible impact on the con. Of the 5 fires that started last week, 3 have 100% containment. The Palisades fire has 14% containment and the Eaton fire has 33% containment.

We know that many of you are from outside fire country. These containment percentages are VERY GOOD NEWS.

There is a possibility of additional fires this week. Los Angeles County comprises 4,083 square miles, 88 incorporated cities, and if it were a state, would have a population greater than 40 other states*. Even when a fire is "in the same county", it can still be very far from Escapade. The Palisades fire is about 20 miles from LAX and the con hotel. The Eaton fire is about 30 miles from them. To put this in perspective, wildfires are usually measured in acres, not miles, and there’s 640 acres in 1 square mile.

Based on previous fires, Concom does not anticipate the current fires will directly impact the con hotel or con area. There may be poor air quality from smoke. We will likely use the Corsi-Rosenthal air purifiers we have used at Escapade 34 and Escapade 33.

Concom will continue monitoring the situation. While slashy fun is our passion, safety is our priority.

More updates will follow as we get closer to the con.

Yours in slashy fun,

Escapade Con Com
