Overview

A Convention should have a symbiotic relationship with the local genre clubs in their city. You should make and maintain contact with them.


Club Tables

Sometimes tables are set up in open spaces or dealers room for clubs to set up and represent themselves. These may be full time emplacements with permanent fixtures or temporary table usage with only a sign and a clip board.


Club Displays

Sometimes Clubs cannot commit the manpower to man a table for the required length of time. Club displays can fill the void. If you tell your clubs ahead of time, they can create Science fair type free standing displays to promote themselves. These are usually set up at no charge in the main corridor or lobby of your facility. File:P1010192.JPG align="right" width = "300"

Often clubs will collect funds and sponsor a guest to a convention. They may cover the guests fees or travel, and that guest is usually indicated as a sponsored guest in the literature.
