Well, it was a super busy weekend at the Polaris Convention! Those of you who attended know what we mean!

Ad Astra once again had a table to help help promote our convention. We would like to take this opportunity to say thank you to all who were involved and helped out in some way.

First of all, a big thank you to Stephen Christian for the table, and for patiently answering all our questions!

Thank you to the Chairs, ConCom, staff and volunteers of Polaris, for giving Ad Astra such a wonderful and fun venue in which to promote itself! You are truly amazing people!

Thank you to Michaela Helliwell, for all her time, effort and talent in creating our flyer. She handled last minute changes with grace and humor, and delivered an incredible piece of work!

Thank you to Janet Jones-Smith, for bringing the goods needed for the table, and handling the set up and tear down.

Thank you to Amy De Ruyte, Chris 'Tiggers' Knight, Michael 'Taz' Labadie, Roxane Learn and Parker Learn, for manning the table. Your time and effort is appreciated more than you realize.

Thank you to Cathy Palmer Lister, Chairperson of ConCept in Montreal, for taking Ad Astra flyers back to Montreal to help promote our convention!

Thank you to Paul Salivar for taking flyers to the Paradise ComiCon, so that we had a presence there as well.

Most importantly thank you to all of you who stopped by to say hi, chat, and pre register. We couldn't do it without you! If we forgot someone, we're sorry, but thank you too!

Sincerely

Lee Knight, Michael McDougall, and Peter Sprokkelenburg. Ad Astra 2009 Co-Chairs
