Cadet Tarima Sadal Deserves some Shore Leave

After the first season of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy, we feel that Zoë Steiner could certainly use some Shore Leave!

Zoe Steiner is an emerging screen actress known for her natural on-camera presence and emotionally grounded performances. She has begun building recognition through supporting roles in independent film and television, earning attention for her subtle, character-driven work.

Her character Tarima Sadal on Star Trek: Starfleet Academy is a rising officer-in-training, known for her sharp analytical mind and steady leadership under pressure. Currently serving as a senior cadet, she specializes in interstellar navigation and first-contact protocols, earning high marks from her instructors and the respect of her peers. Focused, principled, and quietly determined, Sadal represents the next generation of Starfleet’s exploratory and diplomatic mission.

Her Photo-ops, Fest Dinner, and Autograph tickets are now available at the Shore Leave Store.

Laurette Spang is unable to attend Shore Leave 46

We are sorry to announce that our favorite Cassiopia will not be joining us at Shore Leave 46. Laurette Spang has had to cancel due to a family medical situation.

Prepare a Viper, Lt Sheba is on Deck!

Shore Leave is very excited to have Anne Lockhart join us this year in Lancaster!

Anne Lockhart is best known to science-fiction fans for her role as Lieutenant Sheba on the classic TV series Battlestar Galactica. As the tough and capable daughter of Commander Cain, Sheba quickly became a fan-favorite character, serving as a skilled Viper pilot and a strong leader in the Colonial Fleet. Lockhart’s performance helped make the original Battlestar Galactica a lasting part of sci-fi television history.

Her Photo-ops, Fest Dinner, and Autograph tickets are now available at the Shore Leave Store.

We have a new Charity for our Poker Tournament

In memory of Robbie Greenberger, Shore Leave hosts a charity poker tournament every Saturday night during the convention. The game is played for chips and bragging rights, and players receive certificates based on their finishing positions.

This year’s featured charity is the Leukemia Research Foundation. As in past years, participants enter the tournament by making a donation directly to the charity. Simply bring proof of your donation to play. Visit the Poker Tournament webpage for more information.

The Best Fest is Back!

We expect that this will be our Best Fest with our Guests yet! Not only do we have an amazing lineup of celebrity guests to choose from, but we also have the amazing Bonnie Gordon, who will be entertaining us with her music. So be sure to get your tickets early, as each guest only has 9 seats at their table. After the dinner, there will be a mix and mingle with all the guests.

There are three ticket types: Dinner with your chosen celebrity and then the Mix & Mingle, Dinner and the Mix & Mingle, and then just attending the Mix & Mingle.
