InterCon was a convention for Star Trek and Science Fiction fans and collectors. InterCon is a [[syllabic abbreviation]] for "Intermountain Convention". The event was held August 13-14, 1976 at the Tri-Arc Travelodge in Salt Lake City, Utah.[1] It was chaired by Julia Howarth, Susan Dastrup, Nerissa Wilhite, and Davie Wilhite. The guests were Alan Dean Foster, Jerry Pournelle, Bill Blake, Kathie Browne (Darren McGavin's wife), Darren McGavin, [[Grace Lee Whitney]], Bob Wilkins, Bjo Trimble and her husband John Trimble. The program was edited and published by Brad Boyle and Mick Worthen, with cover art by Tim Johnson.[2] Content included summaries of films shown, by Brad Boyle, and three fiction stories: "Star Trek: TOS, "The Stiff Affair" by Don Winner, "Dolomai Beast" by Gary Philips, and "Kolchak: The Night Stalker, The Cannibals" by Susan Dastrup. InterCon featured a film program that included the first science fiction film A Trip to the Moon and other classics. Other events included a question and answer session with celebrity guests, a costume party, a Star Trek themed play In [[iarchive:in-memorium-inter-con- play/mode/2up|Memorium]] [1], and a costume contest. A favorite attraction was a display of the original costumes from Logan's Run (film).
