Intercon I will be the twelfth annual New England Intercon, the all-genre, all-LARP convention. We'll be at the Radisson Inn and Suites in Chelmsford, Massachusetts, again for a great weekend of LARP! 
We've got a few new things planned this year: an "Iron GM" competition where teams will write a LARP in 24 hours based on three secret ingredients, and, a special set of events currently code-named "The Thursday Thing" which will make Intercon I bigger as well as better.
We'll have more about these very soon! But, right now, you should know that our full schedule and LARP signup will start early next month. If you register for Intercon I know, you'll hear about it first!
For Intercon I, we're welcoming back the space aliens and we have a number of great LARPs with an Intergalactic theme. But there are many new LARPs and returning favorites from many different genres, which makes a New England Intercon that much better.

This entire weekend of fun, LARPing and the chance to meet a couple of hundred other LARPers is only $35! (Rooms at the
Chelmsford Radisson Hotel and Suites, where Intercon I will be held, are only $96/night, too.)
And, even with all of the LARPs we have so far, we'll still need
