Trekonderoga draws crowd Ticonderoga “Star Trek” convention featured stars from the original series
Lee Meriwether at Trekonderoga
Meriwether, who guest starred on Star Trek, was joined by Nichelle Nichols, Lt. Uhura, and Walter Koenig, Ensign Chekov, at this year’s Trekonderoga Aug. 25-27
TICONDEROGA | Fans of “Star Trek” headed for Ticonderoga last weekend to attend Trekonderoga and meet some of the actors from the original 1960s show. By Lohr McKinstry Trekonderoga coordinator • STA FF W RITER • James Cawley said 600 people had registered for the 3rd-annual convention and another 400 for the Elvis Presley show he does as an Elvis tribute artist. It was Cawley who recreated the 1960s Enterprise sets in a converted supermarket in downtown Ticonderoga, using the original plans from the show. The operation is now licensed by CBS as the Star Trek Original Series Set Tour. “You can see what it’s like when they were making the show,” Cawley said. “People who are fans of the show feel reverent when they see this.” This year Trekonderoga had Nichelle Nichols and Walter Koenig appearing with guests stars from the series that included Lee Meriwether. Nichols was Lt. Uhura, while Koenig played Ensign Chekov. “It’s been very hectic,” Cawley said. “It’s bigger with Nichelle and Walter coming.” » Trekonderoga Cont. on pg. 16-17
