Gene Roddenberry

Tribute Unveiled!

The small town of Vulcan, Alberta, Canada (the same one that is lobbying to

get the Star Trek premiere in 2009) holds its 15th annual Star Trek convention

this month, and this time there is a special Roddenberry tribute, and a special

Roddenberry guest. TrekMovie.com has details and exclusive images of the memorial below.

The town has created a permanent memorial (see below) to Star Trek creator Gene

Roddenberry. His son, Eugene "Rod" Roddenberry Jr., will be on hand to unveil this tribute.

In a statement Rod said:

I very much appreciate this tribute to my father, who would be humbled by the continued

popularity of Star Trek in big cities and small towns around the world," offered Roddenberry.
