I not sure if there are a lot of Star Trek events in New England. I only remember one event, but that was a long, long time ago and it was small.

I also noticed in the other sections that there are no GEO offices in the New England area.

I think I am way past the Federation boarders or everyone is hiding.

Bill should be able to help you there as he is a regular to the New England shows. I know there is at least one or two in the spring.

Here in New England Conventions seem to be scarce. I usually find out about some of the smaller ones after the fact.

There are a couple coming up on November.

One that I usually frequent because of its low price and convenience to get to is
Boston SuperMegafest in Framingham, MA

Guests include Counselor Troi, Marina Sirtis.

Star Trek III's Commander Kluge, aka Christopher Lloyd and Lea Thompson Back to The Future 25th Anniv. Reunion.

Karen Allan from Raiders of the Lost Ark and Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

Many other guests as well from various genres.

Info at http://www.supermegafest.com/

The other is the former United Fan Con, now called the New England Fan Experience.
Upon checking their site this morning it has been canceled this year and will return in 2011.

The NorthEast GEO4 has been folded into GEO6 not a lot of activity in New England unfortunately at this time.
I do keep an eye out, and have found some new people heavy into Trek and SciFi.

Hope that helps a little.

What I am about to say will make me sound like a Ferengi or someone who works for one. I many have a problem with Star Trek events due to location, location, location and timing. Anything close to the Holidays and my boss will not let me take the time off and if it is outside of Connecticut, then it be harder to get the time off to actual enjoy the event. I will keep on looking.
