BrickCon 2008 is looking for any talks, roundtables, and special
activities you would like to see at the Con this year.

This year we have two classrooms adjacent to the exposition hall with
real, hard walls so we anticipate being able to program
presentations/activities for up to twenty people during public hours or
other activities.  Additionally, public hours have been further reduced
from last year, leaving more programming time for events requiring larger
spaces.

Past talks have included manufacturing custom parts, an introduction to
LDraw, and slideshows of LEGOLAND (insiders' and outsiders' views), among
many others.

Roundtables, or moderated discussions, have included sorting, Moonbase
standards and design, landscaping, and anything that someone can think of.

Activities already planned for this year include the Dirty Brickster, a
draft, and speed and blind builds.

All we need for more talks, roundtables, and activities are ideas and
people to run with them.  Projectors and a computer will be available
(although bringing your own laptop ensures compatibility).  All spaces can
be configured with tables and chairs as desired.

Any registered attendee who would like to run a presentation or activity
should e-mail proposals or questions to me (my first three initials @
morfydd.net---please mention BrickCon in the subject).  If possible,
please include a possible title, brief description for the event program,
and any time constraints or facility requirements.  Events are typically
scheduled to run up to fifty minutes but can be scheduled for more or
less time.

Our hard deadline for proposals is September 8.  This gives me time to
make a schedule and get everything into our printed program.  Earlier is
better.

BrickCon is an annual adult LEGO hobbyist convention and exposition in
Seattle.  BrickCon 2008 will be October 2--5, 2008, in the Seattle Center
Exhibition Hall.  For more information and online registration, visit
