(The Monroe Event was created with the goal in mind of filling the void for the community with something to do this year that was left open after our awesome local college con was cancelled for this year. Their con director, Dennis Aswell, contacted us and is helping us with this event while their staff is still trying to fight the good fight with the college to possibly bring theirs back in 2027. We hope to see their return. )
