SwapCon 2 Planning

SwapCon 2 Planning

From our own forums

So are people still interested in doing Swapcon 2 in September??

If so I need to start talking to the BAKA Exec’s to look at booking some rooms.

Heck, if people are interested we could look at adding a viewing room, gaming room, and/or panel room if we can find people to run them.

For anyone who doesn’t know what Swapcon is, it’s a Swap Meet/Garage Sale style meet-up for people to buy, sell and swap their anime and gaming related stuff. It’s held at the U of A and sponsored by BAKA and Anime Alberta.

It’s free to attend for both customers and vendors, as usually they’re the same people, and we hope to keep it that way. So it’s not going to get any larger than as many rooms as we can get for free.

BAKA and Anime Alberta are looking at putting on a larger event in Winter called Wintercon, but that depends on how much enthusiasm we get and how many of the other U of A clubs decide to join us.

So do you want a table at Swapcon? Or, are you interested in running an event there?

If you’d like to help plan the next SwapCon or have some suggestions, please share them over here.
