2023 Westercon Site Selection
Site selection for Westercon 75 was a mess. Westercon 75 should have been held in 2022 and selected at Westercon 73 in 2020 but this was in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic and Westercon 73 was postponed to 2021 and then turned into a virtual convention. The Westercon Business Meeting was held at Loscon 47 over Thanksgiving weekend.
As of that meeting, no bids to host Westercon 75 had been filed and no site was selected by either the normal election process at Westercon 73 or at the Business Meeting held at Loscon 47. Because of this, the 2021 BM nominally awarded Westercon 75 to a committee consisting of Kevin Standlee and Lisa Hayes (who were running Westercon 74 in Tonpa, NV), with the understanding that they would attempt to find a group willing to host the 75th Westercon. They solicited bids and discussed the situation with interested parties. After reviewing the proposal from the Anaheim group, they transferred the right to host Westercon 75 to the Anaheim committee.
All persons who voted in the 2023 site selection at Westercon 73 will receive supporting memberships in Westercon 75.
