That's because our venue sustained some Sandy-related damage. It's nothing unfixable (and no artifacts in our museum were harmed), but we are not certain about having the buildings repaired in time for the show. So, in spring 2014, we'll host VCF East 9.1. ;) However we will probably have a swap meet and/or other smaller events this year. Details TBD. In the meantime, there's VCF Southeast 1.0, VCF Europa, and VCF Midwest this year. (I don't know the details about Southwest or UK.) Sellam is still looking for someone * immensely qualified * to take over VCF West. The person MUST: 1. have proven experience and success in running a sizeable convention; 2. be extremely reliable; 3. understand modern marketing techniques; and 4. have substantial time to devote to the show. If anyone's interested and qualified, then feel free to contact me, and I can help you understand what's involved.
