Dennis, any idea when the Royal York is taking room bookings for Torcon?
I've been hassling them since October and they're asking me to check back
later this month. I'd hate to miss out on a room there. It looks divine -
just seen it on a UK travel show. Class act!

Cheers
KT

Hi: As the saying goes, not my department, however
to quote another source:
"Progress Report #4 will be mailed to all members in
 early January. Hotel booking information will be available
 in that PR, and will also be available on the convention's website."

Based on my experience most SF worldcons start their
room reservations at the end of January / start of February,
so relax and keep an eye on the Torcon3 website: www.torcon3.on.ca

  lots of luck with tronoto ego-centrics... I was offering animation
to liven up the site and got told they wanted only local peopleactive.
(the utilmate people delivered on the flash cartoons long before they
even answered.


 which, as it turns out, seems to be no one.

 name dropping seems to be in order here. Get sudbury to ask...
(that certain sf-fan mag.

 pat

It sounds like there was a miscommunication somewhere. The chair of 
Torcon is from Hamilton, the head of programming is from Montreal, the 
head of operations is from England, the head of administration is from 
Colorado, the volunteer coordinator is from Maryland. Of thirty people 
on the programming team, ten are from Ontario, of which only seven live 
within local calling distance of Toronto. Do you have a name of the 
person you talked to and a date, or an email, or anything?

Some further info for you...

---------------------------------
Torcon's latest Progress Report #4 has just been mailed.

Within it is the Hugo Nomination Form, the Aurora Nomination Form
(for Canadian members) and the Torcon 3 Housing Information Form.
Copies of these will be available on the Torcon Website
www.torcon3.on.ca.

The Torcon 3 Housing Information Form is posted in PDF format
on the Torcon 3 web site, in the Travel and Hotels area.
Go to www.torcon3.on.ca/hotels/index.htm and the
Reserve a Room link on that page.

Currently, the form can be completed online and printed,
or printed and then completed. The options for sending
the completed paper form to the Torcon 3 Housing
Bureau are mailing the form or faxing the form.

There is a slight delay with the online registration
(paperless way). It should be available shortly.

Any questions can be directed to facilities@torcon3.on.ca.

My thanks to everybody's efforts.

Peter Jarvis
