Friday Night Frank Feschino
The 60th Anniversary of Flatwoods

 

Frank C. Feschino, Jr. grew up in Connecticut. He is a graduate of the prestigious Paier College of Art in Hamden, Connecticut where he studied illustration, commercial art and photography. For four-years, Frank was trained by several world-famous artists including Kenneth Davies, Rudolph Zallnger and John Massimino.

Feschino moved to Florida and studied film and video production at Phillips Jr. College in Daytona Beach, Florida. He was trained by Hollywood camera operator Rich Davis and graduated with an Associates Degree in 1994. In the early 1990s, he became interested in UFOs when he visited a relative’s farm in Braxton County, West Virginia. Crop circles appeared there overnight and UFOs were frequently sighted over the area. During that era, Frank C. Feschino, Jr. discovered the infamous “Flatwoods Monster” incident of 1952. He investigated the case for several years, thus becoming an authority on the event.


Saturday September 29, 8:30 am doors open,  Cost $40.00 dollars


9:00 am to 10:20 am, Sue Swiatek, Yes, Virginia, There are UFOs! Sightings in the Old Dominion

As a State Director I am constantly reminded that Virginia, like every state, is a microcosm; a representative slice of the entire UFO phenomenon. Just as a hologram is a slice that represents the entire picture, so it is that in studying Virginia cases, you have a good glimpse into the entire phenomenon. We have urban areas, rolling rural hills, large lakes, and a beach on the Atlantic ocean. We have farmland, military installations and proximity to Washington, D.C. Join Susan as she discusses some of her most compelling cases that describe close encounters and a brush with the Men-in-Black phenomenon.



10:30 am to 12:00 noon, UFO’s and the Paranormal, Where they overlap for the researcher. Karyn Dolan is the host of Through the Keyhole, a live internet radio program which explores topics from UFOs to the paranormal. Listen to Karyn’s interviews with researchers authors, & experiencers  at www.paranormalradionetwork.com

Karyn has presented the Roswell UFO Festival, the UFO Crash Retrieval Conference, and the UFO Congress in Bordentown New Jersey..  She writes for Women of Esoterica at:  www.womenesoterica.blogspot.com. Her research spans the bridge between, UFO’s, clairvoyance, remote viewing, magic, paranormal anomalies, ancient mysteries, human origins and human potential as yet untapped.  Karen looks at the question what are UFOs, where did they come from, why they’re here, and whats their relationship to us. For more information: www.keyholepublishing.com   Karyn’s presentation topic will be updated shortly as our  conference program develops. This will be a great opportunity to learn about the overlap between the Paranormal and the UFO phenomena and here about Karyn’s ongoing research.

One of those men, Travis Walton, became an unwilling captive of an alien race when the other men fled in fear. Travis was missing for five days, and his friends were suspected of murder at the time. It was a very difficult experience for all involved.Travis only in the last few years has been willing to speak publicly about his experiences, and how event changed his life forever.For more information about Travis or to contact him: www.travis-walton.com/abduction.html


5:00 pm to 6:30 pm, Robert Swiatek, The Astounding 1952 UFO Overflights of Washington D.C.  On two weekends in July 1952, banner headlines around the country proclaimed startling news:  Unknown objects had been tracked over the nation’s capital and had eluded its fastest jets. The objects circled the Mall, toyed with civilian aircraft, perplexed seasoned radar operators with their dizzying antics, and captured the president’s attention. The largest press conference since World War II was convened in their wake. Then, 50 years later almost to the day, UFOs returned to Washington skies to lead AF fighters on a wild goose chase over southern Maryland. What transpired? Who saw what? How did government officers handle the situation? And why did Gen. Samford say "What UFOs?" Rob Swiatek sorts out the interlocking array of events known as the “Washington Merry-Go-Round” using official documents and first-person eyewitness accounts.

Peter Robbins: Keynote Speech
Excerpts and Outtakes: Reflections, Stories, Tales and Accounts from Thirty Plus Years On the Ufological Road,
 In this freewheeling and highly personal talk, UFO author, lecturer, activist and investigator Peter Robbins departs from his normal lecture format to share an assortment of accounts, memories, experiences, lessons and stories drawn from his years in ufology. No confidences are betrayed but much of this material has remained ‘off the record,’ in great part because it has never found an appropriate place in any of his published work or public presentations. They include some of the quirkiest situations his work has led him into. Some of the events he relates wander off the UFO trail and into a world of memorable places, people, pop stars and public figures. The tempo moves from the anxiety provoking to the spooky to the frightening to the exotic with a selection of surprisingly funny events and incidents as well. A one-of-a-kind talk, some of which will remain with you long afterwards. Peter Robbins is an investigative writer best known for his work in UFO studies, as a researcher, investigator, writer, lecturer, activist and author. He is a regular fixture on radio shows around the country and has appeared as a guest on and been consultant to numerous television shows and documentaries. Speaking venues have included The National Press Club, Washington D.C.; Cornell University, Ithaca, NY; The Julliard School and the School of Visual Arts, New York City, and Boston’s Cambridge Hospital Psychiatric Wing, at the invitation of Dr. Mack, Wing co-founder, Pulitzer Prize winning author and Professor of Psychiatry, Harvard.

Sunday, September 30, 2012 $40 for the day,  Doors open at 8:30 am


9:00 am to 10:30 am, Grant Cameron, Consciousness & the Evidence of a cover up. Grant Cameron became involved in Ufology in May 1975 with personal sightings of an object which locally became known as Charlie Red Star.  The sightings occurred in Carman, Manitoba about 25 miles north of the Canada-US border. Hundreds of other people sighted objects at the same time during a prolonged flap of sightings. Over the next 18 months he had many sightings of large objects and small (monitor) objects in the area. He spent countless days in the area photographing a series of strange objects and interviewing hundreds of witnesses who were involved. After composing a manuscript about the flap, he moved on to research the work of the late Wilbert B. Smith. Smith headed up the Canadian government flying saucer investigation known as Project Magnet which ran from 1950 to 1954. During two decades of work on Smith, Cameron was able to collect most of Smith’s files and material written. He interviewed most of the associates around Smith who worked on the flying saucer investigation. He has produced a CD-Rom data disk that hold most of the documents from the Smith files, along with 12 hours of audio related to Smith's work. Years of Smith research led to the discovery of former Penn State University president Dr. Eric Walker, who was identified by Dr. Robert Sarbacher as a key person inside the UFO cover-up. Cameron teamed up with T. Scott Crain to research and write a book titled "UFOs, MJ-12, and the Government", published by MUFON. The book summed up their three years of research on Dr. Walker's involvement.  To learn more about Grant’s work visit: www.presidentialufo.com/grant-cameron-


10:40 am to 12:15 pm to Richard Dolan, Mapping Out the Future:

Ufology in the 21st Century, In a world transforming as rapidly as our own, nothing feels stable. What of the study of UFOs? Our knowledge and understanding of this topic has gone through tremendous change since the 1940s and 1950s. How can we best understand this mystery with a 21st century worldview? How we should we work together to investigate, analyze, and report about UFOs in a way that is reliable and relevant? And how can we position ourselves for yet more changes in the future? Richard Dolan is among the world’s leading UFO researchers, and may possibly be the pre-eminent historian of the subject. He is the author of two volumes of history, UFOs and the National Security State, as well as an analysis of the future, A.D. After Disclosure: The People’s Guide to Life After Contact. He is a regular guest on Coast-to-Coast AM radio, has also appeared on many television specials for The History Channel, SyFy, BBC, and elsewhere. In his books, articles, and many interviews, Richard discusses the destruction of our political liberties as a result of the UFO cover-up, the possible nature of the non-humans themselves, what their presence means for our civilization, why he believes the cover-up will end within our lifetime, and what is likely to happen after that. Richard is currently writing another ground-breaking work: UFOs for the 21st Century Mind. Due out in mid-2012, it offers a fresh analysis of this phenomenon for a world in the midst of social and technological transformation, and may help to redefine ufology in many important ways.http://keyholepublishing.com http://afterdisclosure.com Visit Richard on Facebook  and Twitter    Write to Richard Dolan


1:30 pm to 3:15 pm, Steven Bassett, Disclosure at Worlds End: Exopolitics 2012   Stephen Bassett is a leading advocate for ending the 65-year government imposed truth embargo regarding an extraterrestrial presence (non-human intelligence) engaging the human race.  He is the executive director of Paradigm Research Group and the Extraterrestrial Phenomena Political Action Committee (X-PPAC), and his work has been covered extensively by national and international media.  Since 1996 Bassett has worked to 1) raise public awareness of the extraterrestrial presence and the truth embargo, 2) convene open congressional hearings to take government and agency witness testimony, and 3) incite the political media to appropriately cover the attendant issues.   He has done over 1,000 radio and television interviews speaking to millions of people about the implications and likelihood of "Disclosure'' - formal confirmation we are not alone in the universe.  PRG Speaking SchedulePRG Media CoverageParadigm Research Group Main Page,   Exopolitics World Network
