We hope to have proposals to review for each of these conferences at SoutheastCon 2007. SoutheastCon 2011, etc We invite you to consider, step up to the challenge, and offer to host a future SoutheastCon. Call or email me about your conference. Southcon Jim Beall reports: There is no Southcon show scheduled for 2007. There is no show scheduled for the foreseeable future. Therefore there is no scheduled income to Region 3 from Southcon. The Southcon Board will be meeting in the next several months to determine its future. Bill Clayton has posed an interesting question about funding for conferences and newsletters. Bill has proposed four main thoughts. Please see BillÕs committee memo for details. The Conference Committee stands ready to discuss and implement solutions to the advertising/contributor question.
