Beam Me Up, Scotty!

You need "me" time, and Marietta Patch is here to help you get it. What better way to escape than a Star Trek convention.

So you've packed the kids away with the neighbors or the grandparents for the weekend, and you seek something completely different for the weekend. Few things could be more out there than a Star Trek convention.

How convenient that Trek Trax Atlanta has landed at the Holiday Inn Atlanta Perimeter, 4386 Chamblee-Dunwoody Road, from Friday through Sunday. This latest Star Trek convention features such guests as Tim Russ, who played Tuvok in Star Trek: Voyager; Barbara March, Lursa in Star Trek: The Next Generation and Deep Six Nine; and Gwynyth Walsh, B'Etor in  Star Trek: The Next Generation and Deep Six Nine.

The event promises everything Star Trek, so spend a day or book a room for the weekend.  Dress up like Captain Kirk and bring along your pet Tribble.
