Programme Theme
Smofcon 19 will have as its programme theme "People and Personalities".
  People vary a lot and fans can vary even more.
What is the best way to turn an informal fan grouping into an effective committee?    Some work well  meeting in person, others on the phone and others via e-mail.
Why does someone you enjoy talking to as another fan turn out to be so difficult to work with ?   Some like small cons but are horrified at the idea of anything larger.
How can you find people's unexpected strengths ?   Join us as we hunt 'The one true way", and then murder it.
How can we avoid putting round fans in square holes ?   Instead we want to give everyone a chance to look at different ways of conrunning from across the world and choose what suites them

Stuff about York
 
While you are in York, there are lots of things to do and see.  As is
traditional with Smofcon, there will be dinner expeditions to many of the
good restaurants of the City.  We pride ourselves on the many fine
museums, from the County Museum with its unique collection of Victorian
household artefacts to the Jorvik museum with its distinctive look at
everyday life under the Vikings.
