Wow! #STLV is here again — and beyond the 50th in 2016, and then Discovery’s sneak peek last year…the 2018 edition might just be the biggest ever ! At least for me, everything Trekland will be on display.
First of all, CBS has graciously got me back on stage to talk about the NEW Star Trek: Stellar Cartography map/book set updated for Discovery and dozens of classic Trek 
stars/planets … twice … AND The Trek Files will join our sister shows on a special Roddenberry Podcast Network jumbo hour-long panel on Trek Fandom’s Power from 1967 to Today!
Not only that, but my friend and admired Star Trek makeup legend Michael Westmore has asked me to rescreen our filmed chat from his museum career retrospective, and then go live with our Vegas audience for Q&A.
And, of course, for the 11th year: my little half-hour of no-frills Rapid Fire Trivia with prizes!
And of course for the NINTH year: I co-sponsor the STLV Landing Party with trivia and prizes for all!
On the side, I’ll be offering an INFO-DIVE all about Portal 47 (at left)— with door prizes, sign-up prizes, members and a special Trek guest … and Saturday night I’ll offer the annual Dr. Trek Show crowdfunder to benefit The Con of Wrath.
Most of all, through it all, I can’t wait to meet our newest Trek fans, and our #STLV rookies— maybe find a DFF or two!—and see what’s on their minds and thoughts these days… along with, of course, all our familiar “veterans,” too.
For the first time, thanks to The Trek Files, I’ll be spending some booth time away from Outpost Trekland … over at the Roddenberry Podcast Network table of Roddenberry.com 
— so if you’re a “Trekofile with an ‘F’,” drop by! We many even be pulling off a secret “live” edition for a future TTF… so pay attention!
FINALLY — now follow me here — I’ll be flying solo …. Teras-less … to get people signed up for info about the next big and refreshed “LA2Vegas” Trek film site tour with Geek Nation Tours NEXT year, prior to Vegas …
… AND re-launching my own TREKLAND TREKS day tours around L.A. at your convenience, on your vacation — or on special dates coming up this fall, optionally bundled with
a new TREKLAND LIVE show and a “Latinum Landing Party L.A” premium event.
Toss in a Trekland LIVE spot here and there as wi-fi allows, and
WHEW.
