Charity, Thank You & Minami Con 20!

So yet another Minami Con has come and gone. We'd like to thank everybody involved. The event organisers, gophers, dealers, art/conbook contributors and members. Everyone had a part to play and it couldn't be more of a testament of "For Fans by Fans".

Even in these difficult times, we are completely surprised by the sheer generousity of everybody at the con. This year we made a total of £2000 for both our charities. That is £1000 each to British Heart Foundation and Aid for Japan. The breakdown of the charity takings is as follows:

Auction: £1029

Bring & Buy: £336.99

Charity Collection: £493.55

Con Contribution: £140.46

Minami Con 20 will be back at the Novotel Hotel in Southampton again next year from 7th to 9th of March 2014. We hope to see you at our 20th anniversary! Registrations will be open from September so please keep an eye out for notifications at around August.

Once again, thank you everybody and we hope to see you next year!

Masquerade Entries & Events Announcements

Not long before the con now and we have a couple of announcements to make! Masquerade skit form is now available, so please submit in your entry.

The events schedule is close to being finalised but before we release the schedule in two weeks time, we would like to make a few announcements in relation. This year, we welcome back Akemi Solloway who will be running some exciting events for us - such as Japanese traditional dance, Learning Japanese through Anime and a few others. We are also pleased to announce that delightful Maids of England will be managing the Maid Café and the wonderful team at DDR:UK will be running the Games Room again.

The con will run until 10pm on Sunday this year. We will be opening our Kotatsu Lounge from evening up until closing. We hope many of you will be able to make it to the Kotatsu lounge this year as we have quite a few games and other entertaining ideas to end the night on. More announcements to coming up soon!
