[Philadelphia-pm] Overflow hotel announced! East coast LOPSA-PICC Sysadmin Conference, May 11-12, 2012, New Brunswick, NJ


Due to the overwhelming turn-out we have filled the hotel!  This is a first!

The committee has arranged an overflow hotel nearby:
     The Heldrich
     10 Livingston Avenue New Brunswick, NJ 08901
     Reservations: 866.609.4700 
     Main: 732.729.4670

We apologize for the inconvenience but the need for an overflow hotel is only a reflection of the high quality presentations (and food) that is making this event the most talked about, community-run, sysadmin conference of 2012!
