Panels Ahoy!

Nauticon ?the 21 and up convention is fast approaching and we at Operation Hammond are doing a whopping 5 panels. This is the most panels we have ever done at a convention in addition to our normal response and outreach duties. Each day we have several panels that appeal to most nerds and pop culture fans. We will be running our first ever 18+ panel as a test to see if this sort of panel works for us.
