    The house opens at 9:30 a.m. with the meeting starting at 11:00 a.m. The time before the meeting is used for completing the administrative paperwork associated with submissions.

    Any drinks you bring to the meeting should be in sealable containers such as sports bottles but not beverage cups from restaurants.

    There are two cats - the older orange cat will hide from everyone, but the younger black tabby will try to play with you. Neither of these animals is to be allowed outside.

    Please be prepared.
