Thank You, BayCon!

Westercon 64 had a phenomenal response at BayCon. Our fan table was always busy. Fan Guest of Honor Mike Wilmoth engaged fans in our party room with intelligent and lively conversation, which kept our party hopping. We sold dozens of memberships and upgrades, as well as our spiffy new t-shirt designed by our Artist Guests of Honor, Phil and Kaja Foglio.

It was also a very good con for recruiting and we were able to fill a number of important positions. We’re always looking for more volunteers to join the staff list.

Our next stop is Westercon 63 and we look forward to seeing everyone there.

Our thanks to everyone who stopped by to talk with us at ConDor and Gallifrey. Our next scheduled convention appearance is Norwescon 33 in Seattle over Easter weekend, April 1-4. Besides our fan table, we’re also one of the sponsors of Match Game SF, the fannish game show where you fill in the ____, on Friday evening of Norwescon.
