TEAMNESS IN SEATTLE
For the past two years, the beautiful city of Seattle, WA has played host to the first ever official North American 'Prisoner' conventions (reviews HERE).
A community of fans of 'The Prisoner' is growing in the area, and across the whole of North America, but it's important that this community grows and flourishes, so that further wonderful events akin to 'Prisoner Con 2017' and 'The Eternal Village 2018' can be put together for the benefit of fans.
AS SUCH, SEATTLE AND THE UNMUTUAL WEBSITE WANTS TO HEAR FROM YOU!
DO YOU LIVE IN CANADA OR THE USA? If so, the organisers of the Seattle events would love to hear your thoughts on what would make you attend the events, and if you wish to help organise such things. Copy/paste the following questions into an email and send them via this link HERE.
