Admission for all three days is $45 until May 17, and $55 thereafter. Space is limited and reserved seating will be assigned on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Activities will include a charity auction, never-before-seen music videos, Q&A and autograph sessions with our special guest stars, and lots of videos featuring QL, Scott, Dean, and our guests. We are considering theme nights such as Hall of Shame and Hall of Steam.
We are also planning a Sunday morning brunch with our guests, with seats to be auctioned and raffled off and the proceeds going to the designated charities. Leapers can also buy seats at non-guest tables for $25 and chat with the guests after the brunch.
Although there won't be an official Dealers' Room, anyone who wants to sell items can do so from his/her room. There will be a bulletin board in the main room for posting notices of sales and/or room parties.
Friday evening Registration will be followed by a Meet & Greet session with music videos and snacks.
Frequently Asked Questions
1) When do con activities begin and end?
Registration will open at 5PM Friday July 17 and Closing ceremonies should wrap up by 3PM on Sunday July 19.
2) May I volunteer the weekend of the con?
Absolutely. The more help, the less work for everyone. There will be a volunteer meeting right after opening ceremonies to explain jobs and duties. Any adjustments in duties all ready assigned need to be made through the committee to avoid confusion and chaos.
3) Will I receive a ticket and my seat assignment after I register?
There is no ticket, per se. A packet with your name on it and your name tag will be given to you at registration. Your seat assignment will be written on the back of your name tag.
4) May I reserve a seat at the Sunday morning Charity Brunch in advance?
No. Since seats to the star tables will be auctioned and raffled off on Saturday morning, seats at non-star tables will not go on sale until after the auction. Capacity for the brunch is sixty, so all who wish to attend should be able to.
5) What kind of charity auction are you having?
We will be offering donated items and memorabilia (some autographed) in a podium auction, silent auction, and raffle. All proceeds will go to our two local charities, Rose Brooks Center, a shelter for battered women and their children, and City Union Mission, an outreach to the poor and homeless.
6) Will I be able to get a tax receipt for my charitable contribution?
Sure, just ask.
7) May I give a gift to a guest star?
The stars would prefer you didn't, but if you feel compelled to do so,they requested gifts come by way of the committee to avoid delays in the Q&As and interruptions to their privacy.
8) How shall I dress for the weekend?
July in Kansas/Missouri is usually humid and in the `90s, but, of course, the hotel will be air-conditioned so you might need a light jacket indoors. As representatives of Leapdom, we want to make a favorable impression on the guest stars and the Hilton Hotel. Above average casual clothes will be appropriate. We want to be welcomed back next year.
9) What is an IRC?
IRC stands for International Response Coupon. Overseas SASEs (self addressed stamped envelopes) require these for postage from the US.
10) How can I get other questions answered?
You may e-mail questions to kcleap@aol.com

The pictures Jo Fox took as our official con photographer are developed and she has three sets to sell. She will handle this from her end.
Available sets are:
$20 for 22 guest star pics,
$15 for 18 pics of John with fans,
and $20 for 27 shots of guests, fans, and activities.
That should cover costs of developing, reprinting, and mailing, no profit involved.

I know its been a couple of days since the con ended and y'all are wanting an update, but this is only going to be a preliminary one. I'm still struggling to get my head above water. :) 99 people from six countries plus the US registered for the con. 85 people from four countries plus the US attended. It cost almost $4800 to mount the con and we have managed to come out in the black. Hallelujah! Our efforts for charity exceeded our wildest dreams. Combining the podium auction, silent auction, brunch, raffle, and concession stand, we raised $6903.80 for City Union Mission and Rose Brooks Center!!! I'm speechless! Thank you, Leapers.

What items went for in the Podium auction will be added to the Auction List of our site as soon as I can manage it. If there is something you'd like included in the next update, contact us at kcleap@aol.com The committee would like to thank everyone who made this possible, especially you, the fans.
JULY 6, 1998
Natasha Pavlovich (LEE HARVEY OSWALD, THE COMA EPISODE) has just let us know that she will be able to join us next week as one of our special guests. This is Natasha's first regional con and she is looking forward to joining us. We have been very impressed as we've become acquainted with Natasha, and we think you will be too.
JUNE 19, 1998
Beverly Leech (SEABRIDE) has accepted our invitation to be a special guest. This will be her second regional QL con, and we look forward to seeing her again. Welcome aboard, Beverly!
JUNE 18, 1998
The good news is Daniel Roebuck is doing a play in Los Angeles. The bad news is it opens the weekend of KC Leap so he won’t be with us. We continue to pursue additional guests. With 29 days to go, we are only fourteen seats from a sell-out. Donations to the charity auction have been outstanding. Look for the podium auction list to be posted the week of July 3.
JUNE 7, 1998
40 days and counting until KC Leap! 85% of our seating is sold, but the back row is only 22' from the stage so the remaining seats are still good. We plan to post the list of items that will be available in our podium auction two weeks prior to the con. Stay tuned in and we will let you know as soon as we can when we've booked another guest in addition to Daniel Roebuck and John D'Aquino.
MAY 17, UPDATE
3/4 of our seating is sold and we're counting down the days to the con! We are still working on lining up one more guest in addition to John D'Aquino and Daniel Roebuck. I'll let you know when we get that arranged. With new attendees from Canada, we now have people registered from 6 countries besides the US! For those of you who have all ready registered, you need to confirm your hotel reservations. In the US call 1 (800) 525-6322. If you live outside the US, you can contact us for the Hilton phone number in your country.
MAY 15, UPDATE
Cost of registration is now $55 and attendee update letters will be in the mail within the week.
APRIL 22, UPDATE
KC Leap has gone international with attendees all ready registered from England, Wales, France, Germany, and Switzerland. This trend may even flow over to the guest star arena. Two-thirds of the available seating is reserved.
Current Guest Star Situation
In addition to John D’Aquino and Daniel Roebuck, Natasha Pavlovich (LEE HARVEY OSWALD, THE COMA EPISODE) is very interested in coming, but won’t know for sure for a few weeks. Renee Coleman will not be able to come. Her baby is due the first week of July. Congratulations, Renee! We are still waiting to hear back from other invitations.
Program and Events
We are hoping our special guests will agree to personally autograph selected auction items for lucky owners. The brunch is limited to sixty (only seven seats available at each "Guest table") and all ready thirty people have expressed interest in attending.
Auction items, some autographed, continue to arrive. We are considering opening the auction, but not the brunch, to the public.
Hotel reservations
It is important for attendees to make their hotel reservations, and be sure to mention you’re with KC Leap. Cut off date for hotel room convention rates is June 30.
APRIL 3RD, 1998 UPDATE
We are working with our charities, Rose Brooks Shelter for Battered Women and City Union Mission, to help make our auction a big success. The committee is forging a path through the multitude of details to make this the best con yet.
Current Guest Star Situation
Daniel Roebuck (THE PLAY'S THE THING, THE FUGITIVE, U.S. MARSHALS, NASH BRIDGES) has accepted our invitation and will be joining John D'Aquino as one of our special guests. We are still waiting to hear back from other invitations.
Program/Events
Activities will include a charity auction, never-before-seen music videos, Q&A and autograph sessions with our special guest stars, and lots of videos featuring QL, Scott, Dean, and our guests. Possible theme nights of Hall of Shame and Hall of Steam are being considered. We are still accepting items for our auction.
