Okay, this is where we’re at. The programming schedule is 99.99995% done, and I’ll be sending it off to Caitlin this weekend so she can whip the Program Book into shape.
T-shirts have been ordered, we have badge flags ready to be attached to suitable badges, and we have plenty of lanyards left over from last year.
One last thing that needs doing is reminding people about the InterMountain Cookie Conspiracy (IMCC), a thing we do where you help us stock the consuite -and incidentally make sure we have stuff you want to eat & drink- and in return you get a discount on registering for Son of Silvercon IV (with Guest of Honor Tim Powers!) up to $20, which means you could actually sign up for SoS IV for the price of a supporting membership – or less, because IMCC credit stacks with the military/N3F/veteran discount. So give some thought to swinging by your local bakery, bagel/doughnut shop, supermarket, Costco, or Walmart to pick up some fluids & munchies before you arrive at the con. Behold, our original IMCC flyer!
I have a quick question about the IMCC:
Does the con’s agreement with the hotel allow the consuite to bring in and serve more substantial foods than munchies? If so, I’ll order a sandwich platter from Smith’s.
If I do so, what day and time would work best?
We can’t have outside food or beverages in the function spaces, but the con suite is a private room. Either Friday or Saturday night is fine.
What time is the Silvercon starting on July 18, 2025?
Registration and setup will begin at 10:30 on Friday in Salon B. Opening ceremonies will begin at noon.
