Johnstown might be the last place anyone would expect to find a Stormtrooper.

But in May, the Cambria County War Memorial Arena will play host to undead, wizards, superheroes and space marines at “Sci-Fi in the Valley Con,” the area’s first-ever science-fiction convention.

Casey Bassett, 23, of South Fork, is the convention’s sole organizer, owner of Assett Conventions LLC and self-published author of “Z-SAT: The Zombie Survival Aptitude Test,” a scantron-style test that measures readers’ zombie apocalypse survival prowess, which has seen positive reviews on ThinkGeek.com and Amazon.com.

Recently laid off from his position at Concurrent Technologies Corporation’s Systems Tecnology Center, he’s been pouring himself into planning the convention.

“I eat, breathe and sleep this convention. That’s what it takes to make a convention successful. All day, every day I’m working on something to promote it. This first year is the most important,” said Bassett.

War Memorial General Manager Mike Silva is more than happy to see “new blood” filling his arena.

“I’ve seen what (other sci-fi cons do) across the country, so I fully expect a very motivated crowd,” said Silva. - http://tribune-democrat.com/local/x1704537360/-VIDEO-Johnstowns-1st-sc

I grew up in the Johnstown area in the 1970's.
(No longer live there.)
It is hard to imagine a successful con there, especially given the lack of any name franchise guests.
I'm not familiar with the artist guests, but they may have enough of a following to bring in some numbers.
I wish them all the best, but didn't see anything that would draw me to the con.
I hope they can find a couple of local science-fiction groups to add some sense of theme and unity,
and build from that.

Mike

Sci-Fi in the Valley Con moving to Ebensburg recreational center

— Johnstown’s first ever science-fiction convention will now become Ebensburg’s first ever science-fiction convention.

Sci-Fi in the Valley Con coordinator Casey Bassett of South Fork said he recently learned about licensing fees for events taking place in the city. Called “peddler’s fees,” they exact a $150 charge on anyone setting up a dealer’s booth at local events.

Bassett chose to pick up and move. Sci-Fi in the Valley Con will still take place May 18-20, but at a new location: The North Central Recreation Center along Route 422 in Ebensburg.
