Trek’s BIG WEEKEND!

Hello Trek friends!

First, we’d like to give huge thanks to everyone that donated their time and energy to the Tribble Parties at the Jack London Bar! We couldn’t have the tribbles we need to pull off our final season without your help, so from the bottom of our hearts, thank you!

THIS SATURDAY, we have two very special events! The first is a panel at the Stumptown Comics Fest! Join Adam and Amy Rosko, the creators of Trek in the Park for a reflective and insightful discussion about Trek in the Park and its five-year mission, moderated by the Portland Mercury’s Denis Theriault! The panel will take place at 11-11:45am in room B114

Then in the evening, a HUGE, one-night only exclusive event! Holocene’s Fin De Cinema will be screening the classic Star Trek episode, “Spectre of the Gun”! But this isn’t your average screening, this one will feature a LIVE score composed and performed by FEDERALE (in which two of our Beam-Up Boys are members) and live voice acting by the Trek in the Park actors! This can’t miss event will be at 7:30pm and tickets are available here for $8 or at the door for $10!

Hope you can spend your Saturday in the Final Frontier with us!

The Doom That Came to Middle Creek


Our buddy Geahk (one of our wonderful and talented prop masters of Trek in the Park and creator of the stunt Andorian antenna in Journey to Babel) has just launched his own Kickstarter campaign!

It’s an H.P. Lovecraft influenced marionette play that he has written and he needs your help for it to come to life!

Please check out the campaign and video here.

Making Trouble

Work has officially begun on the 5th and final Trek in the Park which happens to be one of the most iconic of all: THE TROUBLE WITH TRIBBLES!

If you’re familiar with the episode you’ll have an idea of just how many little furry Tribbles are going to populate the stage at Cathedral Park this August. We’re going to need so many, we need your help! Whether you want to make 1 or 10 or 100 Tribbles, any are appreciated!

Click the full size image below and use our pattern and follow the easy instructions to make official Trek in the Park Tribbles!A PDF of the pattern as well.

Please understand, the Tribbles cannot be returned, however there’s a chance for Tribble souvenirs when the show closes. And feel free to play with the sizes, but please don’t stray too far from the size we’ve provided.

And don’t forget to SAVE THE DATES! TREK IN THE PARK: THE TROUBLE WITH TRIBBLES

AUGUST 3-4, 10-11, 17-18, 24-25. That’s every Saturday and Sunday this August at Cathedral Park in St. Johns!
