Escapade has a Welcommittee!
What's a welcommittee, you ask? It's the fannish version of a Welcome Wagon, helping you feel at home in a new place, answering questions, holding your hand, pretty much anything you need to make your Escapade experience as good as it can be.
ride_4ever is our Welcommittee contact. You can ask her questions before the convention at welcomeescapadecon.net or if you spot her walking around the convention. Of course, everyone who is volunteering in the con suite will also be happy to help!

Read What Fans Have to Say About Escapade
Escapade will always be one of my spiritual homes in fandom… The roots of the OTW and AO3 are there, in the community that wide-open welcomed any fan to propose a panel, to make a vid…that made it seem not only doable but sensible to just dive in and make the kind of spaces that we wanted in the world.
