Questions will cover books, TV, Movies, comics, games, and the dreaded Music! Sign up ahead of time at registration. • Saturday night at 10 pm. we'll have the return of SF Name That Tune. Pit your musical knowledge against the melodic (but tough) samples played by Chris. |

Art Auction The Art show will have many wonderful works on exhibit and sale. When these items get several bids, they will go up for auction. The Auction will take place at on Saturday night, 9:30pm to 11pm. |

Charity Raffle One of the main reasons for the convention is to help out our Charity. This is a group called Kids and Canines. It is a program that helps "problem" kids by having them train guide dogs for the handicapped. This year we are not having an "auction" as we usually do. Instead there will be a raffle for some neat item we are currently working on getting. (Check back later to find out what we came up with.) Tickets can be bought at Registration and the Ice Cream Social. The winner will be announced at the Masquerade. Various other SF, fantasy, and horror merchandise will be available at our Flea Market, held at the Ice Cream Social. If you would like to donate items for the auction, that would be greatly appreciated. |

Workshops & Demos • Tampa Fechtschule will present medieval martial arts workshops at noon on Saturday and Sunday. • If you've ever wanted to learn how voice actors give life to animated characters or characters in books on tape, plan to attend Jeffrey Breslauer's voice acting workshop on Saturday afternoon. • For those who are devotees of needle arts (not tattooing and not geek shows but pretty pictures, wearable art and maybe a costume or two), drop by our Sit 'n' Stitch room. Hours will be posted at the con outside the Channelside rooms. |
