5/13-14/17; Tidewater ComicCon; Virginia Beach

This is the early warning notice and planning thread for Tidewater ComicCon

This is a convention that we have been doing for about 4 years now.

Very high turnout event, the show was mobbed in 2016 on Saturday, elbow to elbow, was a good time to search for new members n such.

In fact a few of our new members came from meeting at this con I believe so, good chance to get some more!

Ok update:

We need to start collection for power, power for our table last year was around 85.00 at the early bird rate, I will need help funding that to make it happen.

To Donate Money use the following Link:

https://www.paypal.me/RhythmSquad

or on paypal use the email:

jonari@rhythmsquadron.com

Power Has Been Purchased it was 85.00.

Our Table assignment is C4 , unfortunately they spread all the groups out so we are not next to the 501st and TA. they are several tables down the line. C4 is located on the back wall with the food vendors.

As for panels we have been approved for our a-typical "Meet the RL" Panel which will be Sunday @ 11:00am.

Badges

I am likely only to get 2 badges for the table.

The rest can be bought at a discount at the table registration desk first thing when I get there Friday night, or first thing Saturday morning, I or the other exhibitor badge holder must be present to get the discount.

Are we going to have table signups? When do we know how many passes you have for those volunteering? I need to buy if there aren't free passes this year. I know the 501st just posted their table schedule & distributed their few passes. Just need a heads up Smile

Thanks!
Jen

I might be able to make it out on Saturday to helpbwith the table if you need it.

Change in plans--the kids can't all make it on the same day due to sports so I'm going to 501st it on Sat and RL it on Sun. I hope to have Chewie ready if I can groom up the old mask--I thought the new one would be here by now.
