I saw the web site, but it dosen't list who is invovled - I'm curious because I live just outside kansas city and have never heard of it.

I'm not sure what you mean by a list of who is involved? The guests are stated. The group putting this together is CRG, as noted here: http://daranacon.org/whatis.html

Most of our members live/work in the KC area. I myself am out in PA, but will be back and forth as we prepare for Daranacon (as a matter of fact, I just yesterday got confirmation of my flight for next month :))

Oh! Also, Kansas City Fan Force (I may be incorrect with the name here, one of the local members is working with them) is going to be involved.

Usually I hear of such things at Conquest or thru KcSFFS (the kansas city science fiction club) or folks I know thru there. but usually if something is on year four I would expect to have heard about it.

The previous years were not in KC ... like I said, it's a wandering con that has settled in KC

AH, I had missed that part - that makes a bit more sense then.

[ericcoleman]

that's why I asked someone else to explain the history ... I've not been involved with it before.

Daranacon, in the past, has been held in smaller venues for a much smaller group - primarily CRG, the group sponsoring it. It has been in NYC, Rockvale, IL and Indianapolis.

This is the first year we are opening it up to a larger group, hosting guests and formal panels.

If you have any questions, please feel free to IM me at MairLiJun or PM me at alida_dmed in about 15 minutes. I have to go get my daughter from her play practice :)
