Frederik Pohl memorial planned for August in Illinois

Elizabeth Anne Hull posted the following announcement on Frederik Pohl’s blog, The Way the Future Blogs:

Plans are under way for a celebration in memory of Fred, to be held August 2, 2014, at the Wojcek Conference Center at William Rainey Harper College in Palatine, Illinois.

Please save the date and join us if you can. If you’d like to participate in the program, please let me know via email to blog [at] thewaythefutureblogs [dot] com as soon as possible.

In future, I’ll be posting more details about the program, as well as suggestions for accommodations for out-of-towners and other activities in conjunction with this event.

The 93-year-old Grand Master died in September 2013. See his obituary on this page.
