This Labor Day Weekend: Not-A-Worldcon!
Aug. 12th, 2005 01:05 amNot-A-Worldcon
A weekend of fannish frivolity and touristy fun in Massachusetts
Labor Day weekend — September 2-5, 2005
It’s Labor Day weekend. A Worldcon-free Labor Day weekend. Some fans are headed west for the NASFiC, or in other directions, for other conventions. Some fans will no doubt be headed to the Minnesota State Fair for pickle hats and food-on-a-stick. But we have something different in mind. Not a convention: a weekend of parties and group outings to various tourist attractions in the area. Please join us for Not-A-Worldcon. We'll be going to Wales, Sterling, Rutland, Framingham, Middleton, Ipswich, Boston, and perhaps Worcester, too.
Please come to as many (or as few) Not-A-Worldcon activities that interest you and fit into your schedule.
( Not-A-Worldcon Highlights )
A PDF with the 4-part harmony is available here. The links in the PDF will lead you to more information about the Not-A-Worldcon venues. Also available at long last: Directions to Toad Woods! It's also a PDF. HTML directions to come eventually, though probably not before Not-A-Worldcon.
Please comment here or send email to NotAWorldcon@toad-hall.com with your questions. RSVPs welcome; knowing how many people are likely to come will help with planning, and if you mention plans to come to specific events, we'll know to look for you there.
“Worldcon,” “NASFiC,” and “WSFS” are service marks of the World Science Fiction Society, an unincorporated literary society.
Not-A-Worldcon is a SMOTHRA event, held in the tradition of Dullcon, Dellcon, Not-A-D-Cons, and Not-A-ReinCONation. It is not affiliated with WSFS beyond any personal memberships in and keen regard for the Society that certain members of SMOTHRA may, upon occasion, hold.
