Subject: Please Help- Looking for some "local color" SF FANS for  our"Con"

I thought this might be of interest to some of you....
===========================

I am trying to locate some Phoenix FANS who love to wear SF costumes for
participation in a Con in Jan. 2000 (but it's not what you're thinking) 
Go to "http://www.corrections.com/aca/conferences.html" and follow the
links to find out more about the Convention / Trade Show(s) put on by our
Association. On Tues. Jan. 11th at about 10:30, we'll have a themed event
in the Exhibit Hall (Phoenix Civic Plaza Halls A & B) entitled: "A Glimpse
into the 21st Century" Although we will have various futuristic
decorations, we have found, thru many years/shows, that characters in
costume really make a themed event a success. I don't think it matters if
its a particular character, like a Klingon, or just you basic wide-eyed
space alien, as long as there is some variety. Futuristic fantasy is a
possibility but horror would definitely be out (after all, they work in
prisons and jails and see enough horror every day) So, are there folks in
your group who would be interested or could you forward this message to
another local group (there was quite a list on your site and I don't want
to spam them all!) In return for their participation, we might be able to
arrange a donation to their club or organization. Let me know what you
think! P.S. I had to miss PhilCon in order to attend a SF Writers Workshop
at the Smithsonian in DC...William Gibson was the GOH!
