Congratulations on having a new website! We hope you like this new site as much as we do. It's been a while since our last update, hasn't it? Unfortunately, beyond announcing the date and location, there isn't much more news to be had. We're working on getting things locked down before we make any big news about just who and what will be happening at this year's convention. ;)
