    Lightbulb NC Mermania 2018 official thread

    Hey Folks, I thought I would start the 2018 thread so I can drop information here as we plan things out!

    You can see the 2017 thread here: http://mernetwork.com/index/showthre...-Mermania-2017

    Our official website is www.ncmermania.com and lots of new info will be posted as we nail down details. Be sure to check out the "FAQ" page.

    2017 saw us having over 500 participants when everything was said and done.

    Here's some of our info for 2018:

    1) When the time is right we will accept PROPOSALS from people in the community regarding panels, workshops, and more.2) When the time is right we will also have APPLICATIONS for volunteers. As per contract requirement with the venues, you'll be required to submit a criminal background check3) We are gearing up to handle sponsorship in a different way that gives all sponsors who want to be higher tier a fair chance, modelled off of how other mid range to larger cons handle sponsors.

    I will post these things here so you can have a chance to apply if these things interest you.

    We do not have dates yet, we are working with the GAC to see about the best times when we can secure the entire facility and have enough pool space.

    We will keep you posted

    Can't wait until next year! I had so much fun this year, even though I was terrified to talk to most of everyone, I made a few friends and I would love to make more! My little brother is determined to drag my mom back next year to bring us!

    Exciting! Does a mermaid at heart like myself have to have a tail to attend? I'm hoping to have one by then but times are hard, lol.

    Currently deciding on a color/design and saving up for my first tail!

    The NCMermania site is prevented from loading on my computers because I'm told it may be a scam site. If y'all tell me it's a legitimate site I'll dismiss the notices, but I'd hate for a scam site to be masquerading as official Mermania.

    The site linked above in Rania's post is to the official MerMainia page.

    I think my room room for one night, Saturday, was around $150 with the convention discounts

    That's a lot of money for a single night.

    Not really, considering the hotel.

    I'm definitely going to try and start saving up for next year's Mermania! I'm thinking about bringing both my mermaid persona Nymphia and an Ariel tail with me.

    Yes, it's def. a quality conference hotel. BUT, you can stay nearby at a motel for maybe $50, $60 a night. You (officially) can't get into the hotel pool for our late-night swim, but they weren't checking room keys or anything.

    It is a very fancy hotel, like I am pretty sure they don't have luggage carts because they have bell hops. I went exploring while everyone was at the ball and it was massive and amazing...
