All,
 
Recently we were contacted by Todd Carlton, Stage Manager of  All-Con (Sci-Fi 
/ Costume Festival) to have a table and do panel  discussions at their 
conference in Addison  March 7,8,9 (Fri-Sun)
 
 
Your club officers cooked up a plan where we would offer unmanned /  
semi-manned table with DVD loop of robots / contests / what we do and do 2  panel 
discussions (we should have schedule in a day).
 
This falls on 2nd Saturday so we will cancel the monthly meeting and round  
up as many as 10 people who would be willing to spend some time attending a  
table (e.g. doing robot demos...) Beyond that number entrance fee is  $15.

Since we have many members with interests in sci-fi, might be good  to get 
out and spread some of the DPRG word and to have some fun too.
 
We need to put someone in charge of rounding up some commitments.
Also, Feel free to respond here -- OR -- contact whoever we get signed up  to 
sign up attendees.
 
 
I promised to do at least one talk, showing off robots / computer  graphics..

>From Todd:
 

 
2008 is our forth annual event at All-Con. We're a 
community  participation convention with a myriad of participants ranging
from  the  denizens of the Scarborough Faire Renaissance Festival to
Assassination City  Women's Roller Derby League. The Star Wars stormtrooper  
costuming
group  is having their annual meeting here as is the  Battlestar Galactica 
fan group.
Cartoon watching, costume wearing, Anime fans are in no shortage.  Pretty 
much  it's a
free-for-all of interests.
 
Our charter charges us with  the tasks of
entertainment and of  education. After spending nearly an hour  going through 
 your
website, it appears that your members have a bit of both   already
incorporated into their  activities.

**************Start the year off right.  Easy ways to stay in shape.
