\"Calgary<\/a>Recovered from HobbitCon and\/or WonderCon yet? Ready to do it all again? We’re about to get the party started here in Calgary, where the Calgary EXPO <\/a>takes place this weekend!<\/p>\n

The exhibition floor is open Thursday 4-8pm, Friday 12noon-8pm, Saturday 10am-7pm, and Sunday 10am-5pm. TheOneRing.net will be at Booth 2007<\/strong> (which is in Halls DE); we’re just a few booths down from our good friends at WETA<\/a>, who will be at Booth 2000. Come by and play trivia, meet some TORn staff, buy a tshirt or a button, and support the website! Our EXCLUSIVE shirt for this convention is ‘Keep Calm and Read Tolkien’. Movie titles may be changing all around us, but Tolkien remains constant, and a refuge from the storm of Real Life!<\/p>\n

(This shirt is currently an exclusive for Calgary EXPO. If, however, you can’t live without this tshirt, then send an email to greendragon at theonering dot net, stating what size you would like. IF there are any left after the con, we’ll get in touch and may be able to ship to you. No promises! Shirts are in regular cut only, sizes Small through 3XL.)<\/p>\n

You can also meet staffers greendragon and deej at the Middle-earth EXPOsed <\/a>evening event on Friday; and we’ll be hosting some panels, as follows:<\/p>\n

Thursday 24th 6.15pm ‘Spotlight on Billy Boyd’<\/strong> (Expo Pavilion)<\/p>\n

Saturday 26th 11.45am ‘Being Hobbit with Billy Boyd and Sean Astin’<\/strong> (Expo Pavilion)<\/p>\n

Sunday 27th\u00a0 12noon ‘Being Dwarvish with Jed Brophy, Sadwyn Brophy, Mark Hadlow and Dean O’Gorman’<\/strong> (Boyce Theatre)<\/p>\n

Sunday 27th 2pm ‘Spotlight on Sean Astin’<\/strong> (Boyce Theatre)<\/p>\n

Looking forward to seeing our fellow fans at Stampede Park! Let the fun begin!<\/p>\n
