It would seem to me to be a good time to mention that another group
I belong too has fashioned a small, self-standing sign with legs
fashioned with inexpensive PVC and the sign portion made as dry-erase
board with the club logo & header on the top printed in perminant ink
pen and an area below to place messages such as:
" we were not able to use room 684 and had to use a different room."
" Please go to room xx ----> "
This would help the late comers as we as the guards/security people.
