Elaina Hamilton has been volunteering with Soonercon since 2016. In 2018 and 2019 she was the Charity Coordinator along with James Smith and Michael Dean. She soon found her favorite part of programming was Children's Programming. Elaina has become the Assistant Director of Children's Programming.

Her youngest son Nicholas, now 13, also pitches in with Children's Programming. Her oldest son Chase has been volunteering since 2017 with the AV Crew.

Elaina's best friend, Jennifer Samson, was the driving force to get Elaina involved with Soonercon, along with her Dad Brian Scoles, Sherry Scoles, and Shana Wiessner.

She enjoys reading, especially the Dune books by Frank Herbert and the expanded Duniverse books written by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson. She has been married to Dale Hamilton for 27 years. Besides their sons, they host two dogs, two birds, and one cat.
