I'm going to volunteer there again this year. I've done it a couple of times in the past and had a pretty good time. For working a 4-hour shift you get
admission to the convention. Considering tickets are $20 and up, that's not bad.

What day or days will you be going, Aaron? I volunteer on Friday, but probably will come back on Saturday. Does anyone else want to get together on Saturday at MegaCon this year?

Unfortunately, I won't be attending Megacon at all this year. I booked a flight to go visit Courtney that weekend without realizing it was the same dates.
She wanted to go to this show too, so now she won't be flying down either as I'll be flying up to see her.

Don't know, I found it on the MegaCon website. I see it on the Brighthouse Newschannel (13) or the TV Guide channel possibly. Who knows, though? As MegaCon nears, surely this would be as profitable as a Monster Truck Jam ad.
I'm sorry that Jonathan Frakes has had to cancel, but Brent Spiner is an excellent replacement. -Campbell

Don't forget that Steve Sansweet is coming to speak at a few panels. I am hoping to be apart of those. I need to get a schedule of events. I am hoping that the panels are free.

Thanks for posting that, Rich! I hadn't seen the schedule before you showed it to me this weekend and had already forgotten that you'd gotten it from his Facebook page- so I appreciate the information. I'm going to quote it into the first post of this thread as well.

It's not looking too good for me to go this year. Lack of a job, therefore lack of money, is preventing me from going. God willing something good will turn up soon and I'll make it to CV and SWW.

Boba Rex wrote:That's too bad, but I understand what you mean. I'm especially excited about this year because of the Star Wars focus, but as a collector it often bugs me to have to pay for gas to go, pay to park, and pay to get in... so I can buy stuff. Those $3 vintage figures I might find? They're really costing me $10 a pop. I don't know if volunteering is an option still, but that's why I'm volunteering. It gets you free admission for the rest of the day you work or admission for the next day. That's how I beat the cost down. -Campbell

Anyone want to meet for breakfast on Saturday before the doors open? We did that this year and it was a lot of fun.
I haven't figured out what I'm doing for parking, but very possibly will walk a good ways to save the cost. Often in the past I've parked in the parking lot on the corner of Westwood and I-Drive. It's quite a hike, but I don't really mind and I'd rather spend the $10 or so on stuff. -Campbell
