KC Leap FAQs

1) When do con activities begin and end?
Registration will open at 5PM Friday July 17 and Closing ceremonies should wrap up by 3PM on Sunday July 19.

2) May I volunteer the weekend of the con?
Absolutely. The more help, the less work for everyone. There will be a volunteer meeting right after opening ceremonies to explain jobs and duties. Any adjustments in duties all ready assigned need to be made through the committee to avoid confusion and chaos.

3) Will I receive a ticket and my seat assignment after I register?
There is no ticket, per se. A packet with your name on it and your name tag will be given to you at registration. Your seat assignment will be written on the back of your name tag.

4) May I reserve a seat at the Sunday morning Charity Brunch in advance?
No. Since seats to the star tables will be auctioned and raffled off on Saturday morning, seats at non-star tables will not go on sale until after the auction. Capacity for the brunch is sixty, so all who wish to attend should be able to.

5) What kind of charity auction are you having?
We will be offering donated items and memorabilia (some autographed) in a podium auction, silent auction, and raffle. All proceeds will go to our two local charities, Rose Brooks Center, a shelter for battered women and their children, and City Union Mission, an outreach to the poor and homeless.

6) Will I be able to get a tax receipt for my charitable contribution?
Sure, just ask.

7) May I give a gift to a guest star?
The stars would prefer you didn't, but if you feel compelled to do so,they requested gifts come by way of the committee to avoid delays in the Q&As and interruptions to their privacy.

8) How shall I dress for the weekend?
July in Kansas/Missouri is usually humid and in the `90s, but, of course, the hotel will be air-conditioned so you might need a light jacket indoors. As representatives of Leapdom, we want to make a favorable impression on the guest stars and the Hilton Hotel. Above average casual clothes will be appropriate. We want to be welcomed back next year.

9) What is an IRC?
IRC stands for International Response Coupon. Overseas SASEs (self addressed stamped envelopes) require these for postage from the US.

10) How can I get other questions answered?
You may e-mail questions to kcleap@aol.com .
