Convergences

Convergences are big gatherings of PAX from across the Region or even whole Area. Normally held on holidays for max participation. They’re also a great time get out the Kotters (PAX that haven’t posted in a while) and bring along FNGs.

There will be a date in the title for convergences that are actually planned, with historical data listed below in each drop down.
