GRAND SLAM 2007 THANKS TO ALL!

The party's over for another year as Grand Slam XV: The Sci-Fi Summit wraps up. Thanks to all the fans who made the trip to be with us! Special shout-outs to our diverse line up of celebrities who made the weekend truly one to remember. Mark your calendars for April 11-13, 2008 for Grand Slam XVI. For those Trekkers who could not be with us we wanted to share a message that was read at the convention from J.J. Abrams, the producer/director of the new STAR TREK feature film set for release for the Holiday season 2008.

Dear Grandslammers --

We are currently in pre-pre-pre-production, and are all beyond excited -- and honored -- to bring you the next chapter in the Star Trek saga. There will be much more to say at next year's convention --but for now, know that we are working hard to do you proud. Thank you for your support, and for keeping Mr. Roddenberry's vision alive.

Best,

JJ Abrams
