A Milwaukee club founded in early 2021 by Eric Hildeman. It has so far operated mainly as a Facebook group, beginning with two meetings in summer 2021 (one live, with about three attending; one online). Hildeman also does a weblog and a fancast on behalf of the group, both called Starship Fonzie. All tend to have a mostly media-oriented bent, but explicitly exclude fantasy.

Hildeman has designs on starting up a new convention in Milwaukee.

145 people had joined the Facebook group as of September 2021, but activity is quite low. Covid-19 significantly interfered with Hildeman’s plans to launch the group.

The club, of course, has no affiliation with the historic Science Fiction League.



Club 2021
This is a club page. Please extend it by adding information about when and where the club met, when and by whom it was founded, how long it was active, notable accomplishments, well-known members, clubzines, any conventions it ran, external links to the club's website, other club pages, etc.

When there's a floreat (Fl.), this indicates the time or times for which we have found evidence that the club existed. This is probably not going to represent the club's full lifetime, so please update it if you can!
