Time Flies At A Standstill

by Marc Morisseau

 

Okay, time for a new post. It's 2024, seems like Eons since the last one on this site. The RISFC, the organization for whom this blog was originally created, has undergone some big changes.

For one, there was COVID. COVID has pretty much killed the in-person Fan Clubs like ours. We've had fewer members at our monthly meetings, so we decided in January of this year to meet Quarterly. Now we'll get together formally in January (our Holiday Party), April for an event with a different theme each year; June for our Annual Picnic; and October for Halloween. In between we'll meet at friends' home for smaller watch parties, Movie trips, Conventions, and whatever else people want to do. The days of 40+ people at a RISFC meeting are over (people are more accustomed to getting their Sci-Fi fix on their phones), but a stalwart few will still meet in person, cause in-person is still the most...personable!

What does this have to do with Rogue Island Station? Nothing, except that this was a writing project for Club members years ago. More importantly, we've had to make some changes to our RISFC.org website, as it will be replaced with a Blogger site. Hopefully we can connect the two and start writing for this one again. We'll keep you updated.
