Don't miss Uncle Kage at Conifur

Time is running out to reserve your hotel room for Conifur at the discounted rate of only $99 (that's less than half the regular price!). Don't delay! Because you don't want to miss Uncle Kage's Story Hour.

That's right, Conifur is proud to announce that Uncle Kage is bringing his incomparable desertations on his life, the universe, and everything, to the great northwest! Sharp-eyed observers noticed last week the appearance of "Uncle Kage's Story Hour" on the preliminary event schedule. It isn't a mirage! It isn't a cruel joke. No, he's going to take the stage and regale us with his tales of adventure. Or maybe he'll just rant about some of the funnier clueless people he's had to deal with. Either way, it's sure to be a good time!To reserve your hotel room, call Sheraton Tacoma/Tacoma Convention Center at (800) 325-3535, and reserve your room for Conifur today!

Conifur needs sponsors! The economy is bad, and everyone, it seems, is tightening their belts, including Conifur.

Sponsors receive various goodies (including a free con t-shirt). Don't forget the good karma you gain by helping out a worthy cause. Thanks!
