Reason #8 to attend Mountain-Con:
Sarah Douglas 
Although we may recognize her best as "Ursa", General Zod's right-hand woman in the first two Superman movies (starring Christopher Reeve), Ms. Douglas is an accomplished actress who has been in several of our favorite shows...
Some of Ms. Douglas's other science fiction, fantasy, and horror roles include:
- "Pamela" in V: The Final Battle (television series)
- "Queen Taramis" in Conan the Destroyer
- "Dr. Lana Zurell" in Return of the Swamp Thing
- "Lyranna Tagget" in Beastmaster 2
- "Elsa Toulon" in Puppet Master III
- "Lt. Col. Sinclair" in Return of the Living Dead III
- "B" in a Space 1999 episode
- "Lady Whitehurst" in an episode of The Wizard
- "Deathwalker/Jha'Dur" in an episode of Babylon 5
- "Yosuuf/Garshaw of Belote" in an episode of Stargate SG-1
Ms. Douglas also starred as "Pamela Lynch" on Falcon Crest, which ran for two years ('83 - '85) and has had several other guest starring roles on Magnum P.I., The Love Boat, The Return of The Saint, Matlock, Remington Steele, and many others.
Ms. Douglas has offered a very rare event she calls "An Evening with Sarah Douglas", which is an intimate gathering of people that lasts for about 90 minutes. It is a private event, and has never been held outside of England ... until now. "An Evening with Sarah Douglas" is a special event at Mountain-Con, and thus has an additional fee.

It's that time of week again, when we tell you what is new and exciting with Mountain-Con. But first...a reminder.
The official Mountain-Con hotel is the Hilton Garden Inn Salt Lake City/Layton, at which we have the great room rate of $89/night, no matter how many people are in the room. (Mountain-Con room rates are available by calling 801-416-8899 or by going to an exclusive room reservation Web site.)
Reason #7 to attend Mountain-Con:
Club Fahrenheit 451
The Hilton Garden Inn Salt Lake City/Layton (connected to the convention center) has a private club/bar named "Club Fahrenheit". Club Fahrenheit has agreed to (temporarily) change its name for the duration of Mountain-Con 4...to Club Fahrenheit 451.
Not only will Club Fahrenheit 451 have a new name from September 19-23, 2008...they will have a specialized beverage list. Here's an example of a few of the drinks:
- Blood Wine
- Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster
- Blue Milk
- Ambrosia
- Brevari
- Why is the Rum Gone?
- Black Rider
- Firefly
- Black Hole
- Viper Pilot
Some of the food menu items will also be renamed.
There is also a rumor that the Club Fahrenheit 451 staff will be in costume. (We hear they are as "geeked out" about the whole prospect as we are.)
