Galaxy of Stars Con - Jackson

Last weekend I attended Galaxy of Stars in Jackson, MS. It was a small con. And we were up close and personal with the stars. There were only about 200 people there. It was great. The stars are out of contract now and really, um, said what was on their minds. Some of them using more French than others !! But it was a ton of fun. We got to see Tim Russ (Tuvok), Marina Sirtis (Troy), Dominic Keating (Malcom Reed), Garrett Wang (Harry Kim), John Billingsley (Dr. Pholx) and his wife Bonita Friederecy (guest spots), and Natalija Nogulich (the Admiral). Everyone was great!

Melanie,

sounds like a fun con. I run a startrek website trekmovie.com and am always looking for interesting con reports. If you are interested in helping put one together for this one feel free to email me

Hi Melanie, This post brings back memories of attending several cons here in the Toronto area over the years and seeing some of the wonderful actors who brought the Star Trek universe to life for us. I loved going to these cons but they are so expensive to attend.
I would have liked to have seen John Billingsly because I understand that he's a book lover and collector. And he's a great character actor. Thanks for sharing and bringing back great memories for me. Cheers Judy
