The list of the meeting dates for the rest of the year is as follows:
It is, of course, subject to change but we will be trying to stick to these. The dates listed as 'week of' will be at the hotel, will be in the evening, and will be during the week. Those dates will be pinned down once the hotel can tell us what rooms they have free and when. Tammy opened up the floor for discussion and/or questions: Tammy will have nicer flyers with the official con art work by the next meeting February 20th.
