My audience for my panel. More on that later.
Pat and I went to our respective churches. Then I registered for the Buffalo NASFiC and the LA Worldcon bid. Then I checked the Green Room to see if my other panelist showed up. Not finding them, I went to the room. I gave them 5 minutes but still nothing. I then decided to go on. I was on The Captain Panel. The remit of this panel was the evaluate the leadership style of the captains on Star Trek. I introduced myself (though I forgot to mention my fan writing). I described the remit and suggested that this panel was going to involve more audience participation. The panel covered various aspects of leadership and how it related to Star Trek and SF in general. I saw some con members I knew and said I did a good job.
Pat and I went to do some errands and got lunch. We bumped into someone with a Winnipeg Fringe Volunteer T-Shirt. He guided us to the Winnipeg’s Lawn of Fabulousness. We chatted with some Fringe volunteers and got a Fringe program for our friend Ed Anthony.
Then we went to the con’s Closing Ceremony. It was a fun affair run by Toast Master Tanya Huff full of song, thanks, and tradition. Pat and I went to the hotel and then came back. Pat went to the Filking on the basement level and I was at the Dozed Moose. There I bumped into many people I knew. I saw Warren Frey where we talked about various fannish things. Then I went back to pack and get ready for our morning flight.
I am still processing the con. There were ups and downs like any other con. I hope to write a detailed report. It was great checking out Canada and taking fandom. That is always fun.
