Westercon 75 Anaheim has posted hotel reservation information on their website at https://t.co/9jaJaJFaAI -- note that you have to telephone the hotel directly and mention Westercon 75 to get the convention room rate.
Today we mailed the last batch of program books to members who did not pick up their badges and are presumed to have not attended. This includes supporting members. It obviously doesn't include anyone who did not provide a valid postal mail address.
@Lrobinett We mailed packages to every member who is marked as not having collected their name badge except for "guest of" and those people who we knew were deceased. We did not know about Gene, so a mailing did go to him.
There are still 30 program book packages waiting on the postage we ordered and that we hope will arrive tomorrow. Small-town post offices don't stock a whole lot of the 3 oz Ursula K. Leguin stamps. We'll mail the final batch as soon as we can.
The newest issue of _Salon Futura_ has not one but two reviews of Westercon 74, one reviewing the online portion of the convention and the other the in-person portion. https://t.co/pIHSPt4nRw
Thanks @CherylMorgan for recommending me as a "hero" of @Westercon74 (and thank you @laurenbeukes for thinking of me) Last minute or not, I had a lot of fun jumping into the panels and talking with other amazing authors. Looking forward to more like it (time & chance permitting)
How tiny Tonopah beat out Phoenix to host the Westercon sci-fi convention https://t.co/2Pc8kMBfpK via @@pvtimes -- We made the local newspaper in Tonopah by "punching above our weight."
Program items in our online and hybrid programming will be posted to a separate playlist in this same channel when Programming is able to upload the recordings.
All of the Events that happened in the Main Hall/Main Stage of the Tonopah Convention Center are now available online on the new Westercon 74 YouTube channel in the Events playlist Events https://t.co/oj7LoahvMa
Although we didn't have them available at the Closing Ceremony, we have now sent our Guests of Honor these parting gifts: models of the hotels in which they stayed during the convention Kevin Andrew Murphy at the Belvada and Myrna Donato at the Mizpah.
As of one week after the conclusion of move-out from Westercon 74, eleven members (7% of the 158 attendees) reported having tested positive for COVID-19. We thank those people who reported. This is our last expected update on the subject.
As of this morning, eleven attendees (7% of 158) of Westercon 74 have reported having tested positive for COVID-19. https://t.co/qX7ZyXUmr3 Because Westercon 74 ended one week ago yesterday, today is the last day we plan to report new cases reported to us.
