The John Pilkington Award

The John Pilkington Award is given in memory of one of our most dedicated and reliable staff members. If you needed something completed on-time, and in the best interests of the convention, John was the best choice. His enthusiastic energy, and overall love for the convention has been, and always will be sorely missed.

The award is given annually to a guest of I-Con who has over the years been a significant part of our convention. The recipient is someone the senior staff feel has been long dedicated to the growth, and reputation of the convention. This year we are proud to give the honor to Harlan Ellison, whose regular visits and tireless energy have made his appearances a favorite of so many of our fans.
