WASFF RED BOOK

The objective of the Red Book is to provide a detailed guide to running a Swancon, or to running conventions of a similar shape and size to Swancons. Swancon is unusual in that the entire committee changes every year; thus we must make a deliberate effort to preserve this knowledge.
