CopperCon 28 Masquerade Results
The CopperCon 28 Masquerade on August 30, 2008 enjoyed a high degree of participation, with 27 persons on stage as 18 costumed presentations. The show opened with an “awww” with our young fen presentations and closed with a bang, with a decidedly grown-up display-only presentation of Mark Greenawalt’s body art modeled by Renee and Kevin as a green Orion dancer and her Romulan companion. Halftime was ably entertained by our visiting belly dancers, sometimes known as Suatura (a gypsy word meaning "legend").
All are winners because the audience was delighted, but these awards were presented:

Special thanks to our stellar crew. Technical problems which might have been show-killing disasters under other circumstances were solved before I even knew they existed. Unfortunately, my paper records don’t include the name of the gentleman who lent his laptop computer to solve our sound crisis. Like a digital Lone Ranger, he rode off into the sunset after saving the day.
