SMOFCon 28 will hold a “Boot Camp” seminar from 10 AM to 1 PM on Friday, December 3 on the topic of Managing Bidded Conventions. (Bidded conventions are those like Worldcon and Westercon, held in different places and hosted by different groups each year, as opposed to conventions held annually by the same group in the same place.) Helen Montgomery is the Boot Captain. See the Boot Camp description for more details of the planned topics.

Although we do not expect to run out of space for the Boot Camp, we are asking people to sign up in advance so that we can prepare for the level of expressed interest.
