Greetings from the penultimate ConCom volunteer meeting for #NWC47! Only a month and a half to go - and we can still use more volunteers! Check our open staff positions page to see how you can help: buff.ly/Yhsg0Mc
Norwescon volunteers gathered around round tables in a hotel meeting room, with the Executive team at straight tables at the front of the room, and a Zoom window with remote attendees projected on one wall.

Happy New Year from #Norwescon! We've decided to extend the rate for a four-day adult membership to #NWC47 of $95 through January 15, 2025. The rate goes up to $110 on January 16, 2025. Visit the Memberships page of our website and click "Register for NWC47 today!". https://buff.ly/3hEn6eK
Top of picture is the Norwescon logo with rocket and dragon curled around the word Norwescon. The number 47 is under the dragon tail. Below the logo are the words Through the Cosmic Telescope. Below that is a photo of the registration area at Norwescon filled with people waiting to pick up their badges.

Hope everyone is having a heartfelt winter solstice and gladful yuletides. As you come together to welcome back the light, I want to remind/remember that it is also Volunteer Responsibility Amnesty Day. Many thanks for all that has been, and will continue to be done!
