The toastmistress was Esther Friesner, the con chair was Randy Farran. The play was Spandex 2XL. Charity activities during the convention benefited the Tulsa Speech and Hearing Association. This was the first year of the Conestoga Short Film Festival and the old OKon mascot "Okie the Penguin" returned as the official mascot of Conestoga.
Attendance was over 450. The art show did over $4,600 in business, and the charity auction brought in $489 for Tulsa Speech and Hearing. The Friday night "Dinner with Esther Friesner" was a lot of fun. The SFWA Musketeers returned for a panel, and local falconers brought their birds for show.
