We are having a MOMCON meeting April 9th 2011 at Dolores Park.
See the schedule below for ideas of what we have done last year.
If you aren't able to bring your mother out, but identify with the movement, send a donation on the handy paypal next to this.
The two major things we need to organize are:
1. Talent show space.
2. Mothers's Day Brunch.
So step one, invite your Mom.
Step two, tell us about it.

Hello!
Dear Madam / Sir,
We are writing to request your support for Mom Convention 2010, the first Annual Mother’s Day Convention to take place May 7th-9th.
Mom Convention 2010 will be a massive celebration of the women who gave birth to us. A large group of friends who make up a community of amazing people with endless talents, skills, and fun would like to invite our mothers (and our mothers' mothers) to San Francisco, CA for the weekend of Mothers Day. Our theory is that if we all have such a great time together, our moms will too. Many friends will be made and many stories will be told! In order to make this happen, we are having a benefit party in the very near future to pay for plane tickets for the Mothers who are otherwise unable to make it to San Francisco. We would also like to accommodate the traveling moms in all the best ways possible. This will include lodging, food & drink, and activities such as a pampering spa day or a trip to the countryside. MomCon organizers are requesting donations from local establishments and individual contributors to help facilitate this wonderful weekend. This event will bring young and old together to celebrate our collective existence and break down the social barriers that sometimes create a rift between parents and offspring. Our hope is that MomCon will serve as a reminder to never take anything for granted, that life is beautiful, and friends and family are the backbone of our lives. Mom Convention2010 will be documented as a film and long-term hopes are that people will be inspired to join the Mom movement and host conventions all over the world, annually. We would like to mention that we also have utmost respect for our fathers, but we must now honor the strength it must have taken these amazing women to bring us into the world. In the future, we will create a similar appreciation day for the Dads. Any and all contributions are requested to help us facilitate this fabulous weekend with our moms.
Thank you for your support! Please contact us at any time.

Mom Con 2010
Welcome to The Mom Convention's official website.
About MomCON:
when: Mother's Day Weekend in May 2010
where: San Francisco
what: A convention of friends and their Mothers.
why: The idea came one emotional night when it was clear to Jamie Bond and I that our friends are extremely kick ass and there is probably someone behind this reason. Since we both love our Mothers deeply, we thought they would get along quite well. Then the idea of flying out the mothers all together so they could all meet each other made us giggle. Since our network of Friends has proven to be amazing, artistic, and powerful, we thought the same might happen with getting to know the Mom's behind the scenes. Also we want our mothers to get to know each other to improve their network of Awesomeness.
Now the idea is planted in your head, it's time to start planning.
We are in the fact finding stages to see if we need a studio or a ballroom to host the main events.
Please drop us a line at momconvention2010@gmail.com
We want to know if you plan on coming and if you would like to help out planning this amazing convergence.
Main Events include but are not limited to:
*Talent Show to showcase to our originator how rad we are. Maybe we get some brave Moms to showcase their talent as well.
*Mom Dance Party
*Mom Pampering Spa Day
As far as Dads go, we apologize that you are not invited. While you came in our mother, we came out, and we must honor this most painful and life-changing process. Please feel free to send support or help in any way. We love you just as much, but one convention at a time.
