Farewell, Chessiecon and TSFS. At the business meeting on June 7th, it was announced that articles of dissolution were mailed to the state. After 12 years of promoting science fiction and fantasy creators, especially women, the Thanksgiving Science Fiction Society is no more.

Discon III has made grants to several of the SF/F conventions in the area and TSFS/Chessiecon was the beneficiary of a $2k grant. Thank you, Discon III! Chessiecon fans can donate our GoFundMe. gofund.me/1329a5e2

Chessiecon is run entirely by volunteers. We have no paid staff. There are many jobs to do when running a convention. Any time you can spare before, during, and after will help make this year’s Chessiecon a success. Go to Con Ops (Pimlico Room) to see how you can help.
