VogueELITE MOVES THE Para-CON DATE

Unfortunately the Para-Con date has been moved to Feb. 16th and 17th. Yes, we are very upset also due to this move and 11 day notice prior to the convention.

“Due to the economy and the major drops in the stock market on Monday  September 29th , Monday October 6th, and Tuesday October 7th 2008 over half of the vendors have canceled on the ParaCON 2008 event set for Friday October 24th and Saturday October 25th.

Not only has the economy affected the Para-CON vendors but it has also affected those who have already purchased tickets.  VogueELITE Intl. has received many emails from the patrons who cannot afford their airfare due to the drop in the economy.

It seems that our country is in an economic state of panic and the worries of home foreclosures and the loss of all of their assets has spilled over to not only the ParaCON 2008 Convention but every other event scheduled for the month of October 2008.

As a community leader it is not in VogueELITE Intl.’s nature to throw in the towel regardless of the outcome of our country’s economy.  It is also not in VogueELITE Intl.’s nature to take away from any other scheduled event through the competitive nature of promotions.  As the event curator/ manager it is in VogueELITE Intl.’s honor to try to work with all of the businesses, patrons and other events affected by the economic state of our nation.

After discussing the Para-CON situation with our sponsors, lawyer, and the hotel hosting the event (Plaza), VogueELITE Intl. has decided that it would be in the best interest for the community of Las Vegas and the paranormal community to reschedule the event for the days of  Monday February 16th (Presidents Day) and Tuesday February 17th.  Switching the date of the convention will be more beneficial for the vendors allowing them enough time to arrange their finances to attend the event, the patrons to generate proper travel arrangements and the speakers and performing acts giving them 4 more months of promotion as opposed the two weeks we have until the original date of ParaCON 2008.  Not only this but now Para-CON haS extended the daily hours of the event giving the patrons two full days of activities instead of the 1 day and four hours previously scheduled.”

Unfortunately we regret to inform all our readers that we will not be able to attend the Para-Con due to the changes in the dates. We will hopefully try to get some information on some events that do take place. Again we apologize and hope to be there for the next event.
