(Are you looking for the WW II-era Michiconferences?)

A convention held August 15-17, 1980, at the Flint Cultural Center in Flint, MI. It's not completely clear if they distinguished guests and GoHs, but they announced their "guests" as Theodore Sturgeon, Alan Dean Foster, Samuel R. Delany and Boris Vallejo.

There appears to have been two of them in the ’70s and at least one in the ’80s, the last to facilitate taping of Faans. Howard DeVore’s photo collection has one labeled from “Michicon 8.”

All were chaired by Roger Sims.
