Trek Long Island 2 Beams Into Hauppauge

The sequel to Trek Long Island might just go down among the great ones. The second act to one of Long Island’s only Star Trek conventions is officially part of a franchise. (The third annual Trek Long Island is already being planned making it a trilogy. You can grab early bird of prey tickets here.)

Read our interview with Trek Long Island founder, Stefanie Gangone here.

The feeling at Trek Long Island 2 could only be described as energized. People came dressed and ready for the Island’s only Star Trek con stacked to the saucer section with vendors, guest stars, authors and lots of cosplayers from every era of Trek imaginable.

Check out our video from Trek Long Island 2.:
