I just received this info from HMGS. I copied this part of the email that I thought would interest most people.
Hello everyone,
As you all know by now, Historicon and Fall-In! have been cancelled in 2020 due to the ongoing event meeting restrictions as a result of the COVID-19 global pandemic. Therefore, HMGS has decided to move forward with our first online convention, CYBËR WÅRS, to help us all soften the blow. The majority of this online convention will be hosted on Facebook, with a link being provided shortly. The convention will be held July 23-26, 2020.
We are planning several events which we hope you will enjoy. The following is a brief preview of the events, and also ways you, the members, can help make them even better:
Virtual Vendor Hall. We will be posting links to all the great vendors who have come to our conventions in the past. We are also hoping to include some event special promotions.
Virtual Wally’s Basement. This will be an open page where you can post your eBay or other third-party auction links.
Virtual Hobby Night. Our volunteers will be posting painting and hobby videos for you to watch. There may be a few live streams as well. If you are interested in making a video or two, please let us know.
Club Page. We would like to include a page dedicated to the clubs that have attended the HMGS conventions over the years. Each club will have the opportunity to showcase their club, and some projects they have worked on over the years. If your club has not already received an e-mail, please reach out to us at the email contact address below. We would love to highlight as many clubs as possible.
Virtual Merchandise Store. What better way to say “I wasn’t there” than to get some CYBËR WÅRS merchandise?
