These pages originated from S.J. Dudley at WesterCon in Spokane in 1999. I picked them up and obtained her permission to publish them on the net, and to include some pertinent articles of my own that might help the neofan stay out of trouble and have a good time at the Con.

You are welcome to print and duplicate these pages to hand out at any Con, provided all attributions and copyright notices remain intact, and no money is charged for them. Please DO NOT use the picture illustrations, except for those on this page.

These pages do not purport to represent universally applicable rules nor regulations for any individual convention. What you will find here are general guidelines that will introduce you to Fandom and hopefully help you to have a fun and pleasant experience at your first SF Convention. For more specific rules and regs for any Convention, read the Program Book for that particular Con.
