Millennicon

Hello everyone! Starbase Karma had a wonderful time at Millennicon this year. We'll be posting some pictures in the next few days. We were especially saddened to found out that this was their last year. SBK has some great memories of this convention. This was the first one we went to together, as a club, to be on a panel. I don't remember the title of the panel, I just remember the fun and camaraderie.
This year our panel was called "Strong Female Characters in Sci-Fi and Fantasy". We discussed how much female characters have changed since the days of women staying home doing housework and taking care of the children to the present where women do that AND have a career (whether it be saving the day as a superhero or working as a CEO of a fortune 500 company).
We hope you had an opportunity to stop by and visit us! Our next meeting is on April 9th at the Mary Ann Mongan Covington Library from 2:30 pm to 4:30 pm. Come on out, we'd love to see you again!
Also Saturday afternoon we'll be going to AMC Newport on the Levee to see Batman vs Superman. We're going to the 12:45 pm showing (not IMAX or 3D due to some members who have trouble viewing those types of movies). We'll be meeting at the box office at 11:30 am and heading up for snacks around 12:00 pm.
Starbase Karma wishes everyone a safe and happy Easter!
