RavenCon 2008: April 25 - 27, 2008 in Richmond, Virginia
http://Ravencon.com/

The idea was tossed around on GT to have a joint fan table with the 501st and Richmond FanForce. We might even be able to get a table of our own, but I am not sure yet. It would be a great place to show people that we are here, and hopefully bring in more members from the Richmond area(s).

I know we (Tony and I) are going and possibly Luke (Shabad). Anyone else interested in coming out to show your support?

This might be a good time to make a banner. Nothing special, and something inexpensive; we could all pitch-in to have one made.

Let me know what you think of the idea of Richmond FanForce being represented at RavenCon this year.

We should all put our tables by each other. I know we have one as well.

Jeand and I might be able to stop in some time during RavenCon.
I don't have the baseball schedule yet (for my sons team), so I'm trying not to book too many weekend events.

That being said, I wouldn't mind trying to make an appearance for a bit in costume.
A table featuring both FF and the 501st is a pretty good idea!

Fanforce itself should probably just have one table, and have info based on our regions.

Man, make it happen. I'll stop by and pretend like I dont know you all. We'll share silent stares and then I'll burst out in a dramatic reading! Seriously, from what I've heard it's supposed to be better than last year but all is relevant. Must come to see for myself (waddles away murmurring).

What kind of stuff goes on at RavenCon? What's it for? Never heard of it.

Will there be any SW related cons in the Richmond area this year?

As part of the programming, there will be a SW Expanded Universe Panel given by the Hampton Roads Rebellion FanForce.

I don't know the specific time on Saturday.

Aimee and I might not make it. FanForce is more than welcome to do as they wish.

If I remember correctly I offered two restaurants, both of which were shot down because I guess you don't like them wink

Yes my lord! Thank you!

I'm going to play Ravencon by ear, if I feel like going I will just to hang out with people. I don't know if the value for the money is there for me. Whether Richmond FF needs to host a table is up in the air still, we are growing fine organically.
