Hi Everyone,
Can you believe we are now less than one week away from SpaceCon XV! I'm
excited - I hope you all are too! It will be great to see both Barry
Morse and William Latham here with us in-person. It's also going to be a
lot of fun to see the presentations from the folks at Powys Books about
their current and upcoming "Space: 1999" releases.
I need to let you know about an important change at our convention hotel -
they've changed their name! As of yesterday, they are no longer known as
the "Radisson", but are now the "Holiday Inn"!
They assure me that everything else will remain the same (same phone
numbers, same amenities, same service). The only change is in the name on
the signs out front.
I've also been asked if I could provide a detailed listing of con events,
including timings. Below please find our most current schedule:

The events and activities are subject to change without prior notice. As
you can see, most of the events are included in your con fees, with the
exception of most meals and drinks purchases in the hotel lounge. There
will *no* extra fees for our excursions - we will travel en masse either
via bus (to Mt. St. Helens) or on MAX light rail (to Powells Books and the
River Sightseeing Cruise). The screenings of "American Gun" on Thursday
night are $6.00. The River Cruise is $16 (sightseeing only) or $28
(sightseeing and lunch).
Hope this helps! We look forward to seeing you next Thursday and Friday!!
Thanks,
Anthony Wynn
Event Coordinator
