Marcon 46!!!

Marcon starts today!!!

Wondering what's Who-related at Marcon this year? Well, for starters...

Friday, 5:30 pm we have All the Boys (and All the Girls) Love Sarah Jane in Fairfield.

also Friday, a live comedic performance by the Dottore Who group (aka, The Confused Greenies) on Friday at 7pm
(not sure where, though-sorry about that!)

Saturday, 10:00 am The Wibbly-Wobbly, Timey-Wimey Trivia Quiz in Franklin A.

Saturday, 11:30 am Doctor Who: Life Beyond the Crack in Union B

Saturday, 1:00 pm Match Game Regeneration in Madison

and

Sunday, 11:30 am Doctor Whose Line is it Anyway

Also, there will be a special treat for Who fans in the main video room at 10:59 pm on Saturday! :-)

I am hoping to attend all of them-even the Saturday 10am panel (I have the overnight shift in the video room-must find alternate times for sleep... ;) ).

If anyone knows where the Confused Greenies performance is Friday night, please leave a comment, as I probably will not have time to update this post before I leave for Marcon.

Hope to see you this weekend!!!

May Steering Meeting

Just a reminder that our May steering meeting will be this Thursday, from 7-9 pm at the Giant Eagle Market District at Kingsdale in Upper Arlington! ( http://www.marketdistrict.com).

Less than a month until Marcon! Are you ready? :) Stop on by if you want to be involved in the convention or the video room. Unfortunately, the time for staff registration has passed, but we could always use some volunteers! :)

Also if you just want to hang out and talk Who that's fine too! :-D

Speaking of Doctor Who-it sounds like the folks at the Grandview Theatre will be showing new episodes at 9pm on Saturday for the rest of the season! I will try to post weekly reminders here on this blog on Thursday or Friday. :)

Hope to see you there!
