First OH Event

This will be my first OH event and I am trying to pack this weekend, but really don't know what to bring or prepare for. 
Here is what I have put together so far:
- costume for meet and greet
- 50 copies or a few recipes
- work out clothes & swimsuit (if Dr. clears me by then)
- clothes for the fashion show (i assume "business casual" is fine)
- plan on wearing jeans and sweaters on Fri. and Sat (? is that about right?)

Is there anything else I should bring?
My Mom is coming with me and keeps asking me questions about what to bring what is going on etc. and I just keep saying I'm not completely sure.  I don't want to get up there and then wish I had....

Thanks for your responses!  Looking REALLY forward to this and hoping it is the refresh I need with life right now! :-)

You have everything covered....

I'd bring a light jacket...In case you want to walk to one of the nearby dining establishments....or just go outside...

I'd also bring something comfortable to walk in - some people might coordinate a walk either near the hotel or in NYC....

Don,
I think I'll just pack a trunk........

I would also add a small note book to jot things down in. I like to use steno pads for things like this.
