Cons
This club sponsored a series of mini-cons.
Their sister club, Astrex did as well. See Astrex Minicons.
In 1978, SASTREK began to sponsor weekend minicons that were not advertised outside the club. They began when Adelaide’s Channel 9 studios put on a once-only marathon of Trek episodes for the fans on a big screen.
In 1983, Roddcon celebrated Gene Roddenberry's birthday. Held over two days, this event managed to attract some interstate fans. The Little Bird Awards were trophies presented to winners of the art display, fiction writing and costume parade.
The 1982 con, Starfleet Academy, had a convention packet that included the program (silver cover), a technical booklet, something called "Tribute to the Enterprise," a trivia sheet, a filksong sheet, posters, and a STII coloured ad sheet.
Known SASTREK minicons:
- The Adelaide Mini Con (1978)
- Starfleet Academy (1982)
- Roddcon (1983)
- Conflict (1990)
