Hello Tekumelani,
Pasted below is a list of Tekumel events that will be at U-Con this year. I hope this will encourage you to attend, and maybe even run an event.
We particularly could use a Tekumel event Sunday afternoon, and have room Friday afternoon as well. Of course can double up as well, we've done that lots of times in past years.
Pre-registration will open in the next day or two, I'll post the announcement here when it does. You can submit an event any time.
