Hi Piedmont Browncoats,
I haven't heard back from Richard, so I sent another email to him tonight. I copied the link to this thread. Hopefully I will hear back from him soon, Can't take the sky from me! Elaine

Please! Nobody died last time!

Hi Everyone,
I heard back from Richard, a Stellar Con organizer tonight. Here is what he said:

"Sorry to take so long to get back to you, things are
crazy at the moment. Please don't take it personally
if I take a while to respond to email. Unless I am
told it's urgent, I am more likely to let it sit for a
little, till I get time to go over things.

We have a few tables in the con area for fan
tables. Groups with a table will need to man a display
representing themselves, be interactive with the con
goers, provide some sort of programming, and be at a
fan group panel. If you wish to rent a room for a
party, that's cool!
You will also need to let me know who is the point of
contact, and their email address.
The final decisions as to who will have a table won't
be made for a little while yet, so I can't guarantee
that, but the brown coats are welcome at StellarCon."




Please! Nobody died last time!

Shiny.

I'm all for renting a room and throwing a Shindig. Shiny. Now all we gotta do is get some organization going and find a way to fund this beast.

Alright, so here's another update.

We've e-mailed the Richard fellow again to see about renting a room for a Shindig at StellarCon and inquired about size, price, etc.

But, we were also thinking that it'd be fun (and a good idea) to have a sort of mini-Shindig at some point so the Piedmont Browncoats and/or the NC Browncoats can meet-n-greet and plan anything else for the the StellarCon Shindig.

We'd love to have anyone from NC, even if you're not exactly from the Piedmont area, come and help us plan. We're taking suggestions for places to meet on our Yahoo groups page (see my signature), and we'd really like to have anyone from NC Browncoats be there to either help plan things out or just give suggestions.

Hi NC browncoats
Since Nathan's episodes on Lost are probably going to be February or later (they are showing 6 episodes now and then the rest starting in Feb)maybe we can have a shindig to watch him on Lost. It can either be pre-Stellarcon convention or post-Stellarcon convention. See http://tv.groups.yahoo.com/group/piedmontbrowncoats/ for more information about browncoats getting together at the Stellarcon convention in High Point in March. Have a shiny day! Elaine

Hi I just wanted to bump this thread since the Stellar con convention is this weekend. Each year for the past thirty years, there is a sci fi convention in High Point, NC called Stellar Con. Below is the web site for the event.

I know a lot of brown coats will be attending. Hope to see you there. Have a shiny day! Elaine

I wanted to post an update on the Browncoats Fan Table for StellarCon.
The Charlotte Browncoats will be running a booth just outside the dealer room. We'll be showing episodes of Firefly and Done the Impossible to bring the story of our shiny 'verse to the rest of the sci-fi world.
We'll also be selling the limited edition posters for this summer's Can't Stop the Serenity screening. Along with tickets to the June 23rd screening and to the Charlotte, NC Bedlam Bards concert in April.
On Friday night from 7:30-8:30p, we will host a Browncoat panel - come by and support the movement.

You can get details from our Yahoo group:

http://movies.groups.yahoo.com/group/Charlotte_Browncoats/

Or on our Can't Stop the Serenity website:

http://www.charlottebrowncoats.org/

It seems like there were quite a few people interested in this con at some point. I hope you folks are still planning to come. Come by the booth and say hi!

--Tanya

Just wanted to drop in and say I'm looking forward to StellarCon. If things go according to plan, I'll be helping out manning the table and attending the discussion panel.

Right now I'm packing up and getting ready for tomorrow's trip up from Wilmington.

Be seein' y'all on Friday!
