Sad News for South Jersey...
« on: October 17, 2006, 01:40:48 PM »

Folks,

It is with sadness that we at Double Exposure have decided to close our Southern Exposure convention in Cherry Hill. We will not be running it again next year.

The decision comes down to two factors:

1) We do not have the support system in the Philadelphia/South Jersey area for a regional convention. Many who used to run the predecessors of Southern Exposure disappeared, and the grass roots support of the convention disappeared with them.

2) Double Exposure's staff is stretched thin enough by having to run two major conventions a year - while three Southern Exposures fulfilled an obligation during a troubled situation, that obligation is now over, and we've decided to focus on the other events that we built.

We'd like to thank everyone who came to SEIII and who enjoyed this convention for three years; we hope to see you at future Double Exposure conventions.

It can be "the cherry hill experiment, North".

I heard a rumour that it might relocate to Spring Gathering.  But that's probably just crazy-talk.

The Cherry Hill Experiment will go on. Just like a bad sequel we will keep the name intact even though everything else will be different.

It is sad news indeed - but perhaps this will mean redoubled fun and focus for all the other Double Exposure events.  Don't worry South Jerseyites, you can come up to our neck of the woods anytime and crash on our collective couches!

Cherry Hill Experiment kept the name when we ran it elsewhere before, it will do so elsewhere again. No yearly convention nailed down yet, though...

 :(  Well I'm glad I went to this past SE or I would have missed it all together.  Quite frankly,
     the East Brunswick Hilton is easier for me to get to from NYC, since a bus from Port
     Authority goes right there. I think it might be a good idea to move the "Experiment"
     to SG  and rename it "The Spring Gathering Experiment"
