Capt. Kirk Arrives in Condord For Star Trek Talk

CONCORD, N.H. - “Star Trek” fame, Capt. James T. Kirk (aka William Shatner) was in town at the Capitol Center for the Arts on Friday. According to WMUR, Shatner participated in several events.

“‘Star Trek’ continues to draw fans of all ages, including young people who are vital to the future of Concord,” said Concord Mayor Jim Bouley in a city proclamation. “It has inspired many to enter careers in science, engineering, computers and technology.”

Plus, Bouley said, “‘Khan!’ is one of Mr. Shatner’s iconic lines in the movie. Were he asked to pronounce ‘Concord,’ he’d undoubtedly nail the local dialect better than most.”

Trekkies can raise a Toast to Science Fiction at Area 23 pub, 254 N. State St.; chow down on a “Star Trek”-themed burger at The Barley House, 132 N. Main St., or a “Beam Me Up, Scotty” burger at Vibes Gourmet Burger, 25 S. Main St.; or wear a costume and get $1 off the admission fee at the McAuliffe-Shepard Discovery Center, 2 Institute Drive.
