S'Con was a Star Trek and science fiction con held in San Antonio, Texas.

1979 flyer for the con, printed in Saurian Brandy Digest #20

S'Con ("the First") was advertised in Saurian Brandy Digest #20 (June 1979) and the January 1980 issue of The Clipper Trade Ship.

"S'Con" likely refers to three things: Star Trek, science fiction, and the fan-created alternate universe in which the Sahaj zines took place.

The ad:

S'Con the First will be held at the Ramada Inn-Airport, San Antonio, TX, April 25-27, 1980. Fan Guest of Honor will be Leslye Lilker, editor of IDIC and author of the Sahaj series. Dr. Michael H.
