STARMAN FAMILY-CON 2016 (SFC’16) con fees
by Todd Andrews 07 Oct '16

07 Oct '16

Hi Michael, Are you sure you would attend on Sunday? The reunion party for cast/crew/fans is Saturday, October 8. If you are only able to attend one day, go on Saturday. If Sunday is the only day you can attend, you will be most welcome. Below are the con fees Vicki posted earlier. Vicki is likely at the hotel tonight so you could call the direct number of the hotel 424-290-5555, ask for the room of Vicki Werkley, and ask her for the fee to attend Sunday only. From now until the con is over, email is not a reliable way to reach Vicki or any of the con crew. *********** 2016 CON FEES: ********************************* *** $130 per person *** $220 for two adult family members (^a couple or ^a parent with a child 18 yr./older or ^other adult relatives) *** “Teen” 13-17 years (with paying adult): $35 *** Kids 12:& under: FREE Fees may be prorated for those attending only a portion of events, but, since our main expenses involve the Party . . . ***Reunion Party Only (All day Saturday): $95 per adult; $165 per family pair; $35 per “Teen” (13-17yrs) On Oct 6, 2016 5:34 AM, "Michael Belisle via STARMANET" < starmanet(a)starmanet.com> wrote: ok. i just can't find the details anywhere about the upcoming convention.

Re: [SN] HAPPY 30th ANNIVERSARY, STARMAN!

I loved the Starman movie and couldn't wait until the series, and it was so worth waiting for. When I wrote in during the write-in campaign, I figured what difference would it make in my life. I was so wrong--I have met the most wonderful people and been to such great places, all thanks to the most fantastic TV series. Linda In a message dated 9/19/2016 9:32:18 A.M. Eastern Daylight Time, starmanet(a)starmanet.com writes: Greetings and Blue Lights, STARMANET subscribers! Today marks the 30th anniversary of the original broadcast of the first STARMAN episode, "The Return". So if you have a chance, please do share memories, and join in reminiscing about this wonderful TV show! Did anyone who is subscribed to this list see the first episode on TV when it was broadcast 30 years ago? My first episode of STARMAN was "Fathers and Sons", back in 1988 when it was aired on the American Forces Network (AFN) TV station in Germany, which I came across by chance, and I have been "hooked" ever since! HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, STARMAN!

SUPER URGENT SFC STUFF!
by Vicki Werkley 03 Oct '16

03 Oct '16

Posted first to this year's SFC Attendees List; from Vicki Werkley on OCT.2 @ around 6:00pm PDT. IMMEDIATE RESPONSE NEEDED! *VERY IMPORTANT NOTES! * 1. IF you haven’t already sent your Con Fee, bring it with you or call Vicki to arrange payment. 2. Attached is a map of what used to be the Hacienda property. Sandra Ragan put it together with handy locational notes. 3. Liz Turner & I will start our drive to L.A. around 10am on WED. 10/5 and plan to be at the ALOFT noonish on THUR 10/6. 4. While we’re in Liz’s car, we can be reached at her number 760-774-5053. 5. After I leave home, you can contact me on _my_//cell: 707-367-4049. 6. Now for the big /P/A/N /*\*/C /. . . *T-shirts!* Apologies for yet another hair-on-fire post. we don't have time for our usual "pledge process" for SFC Commemorative T-shirts, so this will have to do. Anyone may get one or more T-shirt(s), whether attending or not. GILDAN Ultra Cotton adult short sleeve sizes <> S, M, L, XL = $22 / ea. GILDAN Ultra Cotton adult short sleeve sizes <> 2X, 3X = $24 / ea. (plus shipping, if appropriate) As always, the design will remain secret stuff until revealed on the first day of the Con: FRI, OCT 7. The design (created by Sandra Ragan, who also did 2014's Year-of-the-Horse shirt) will, like this SFC itself, celebrate the 30th anniversary of the series debut on 9/19/1986. It features color photos of all 5 primary characters: Starman, Scott and Jenny, Agents Fox and Wylie. Usually we spotlight one shade of blue and at least one accent color, but our 2014 & 2016 designs are now full-color prints, so can be screened onto a wider variety of shirt colors. Attached you'll find a "swatch poster" Sandra's provided to give you some idea of the colors we're offering for 2016. There are 6 different hues of blue (this SFC is celebrating the whole series + all the qualities of BLUE), We picked a variety . . . * good ol' Lig/ht Blue (SFC sh/irts in 1994 & 2004) * /Sky (2010; a li/ttle more "robin's egg blue" than it appears on swatch) * /Carolina /(2002; a "medium" blue) * /Neon/ (new-to-us; can’t wait to see it!) * /Marbled Sapphire /(in 2012 we had /Sapphire /shirts/we call/ed /Azul Maya/; they/wer/e/muc/h more "teal-ish" than this swatch) * /Indigo /(between blue and violet on the spectrum) * + Six othe/r colors /. . . /Turf Green Gravel /(medium grey) /Sand /(2009; taupe) /Azalea /(2010) /Iris /(a very bluish purple)//The Iris/is the/ STARMAN flower. Okay, here's the tricky part so we can GUESS how many shirts to order in which colors / sizes, because a lot of people prob won't even see this till after we've ordered TOMORROW (MON) MORNING!! So, if you already KNOW what you want, you can just say: => I want _1 _ _M _ _Sky_ (Name/Telephone) Then please list 4 more colors that appeal to you (ideally in order of preference). That’ll give us an idea of what’s “trending” and what might bee most appealing to others. * If you’re not sure, List 4 or 5 colors in order of pref. & choose when you see them at SFC. * Remember to note your Name, Phone & shirt size. Please _send_ ASAHP (As Soon As Humanly Possible) so we can place the order in time to have shirts at the Con! And, as always, you have no obligation to _buy _But please express your opinion, even if you aren’t interested in buying Thanks for all your patience! See ya soon!
