Kumoricon's big sister convention was a big party! Sakura-Con, each Easter weekend, is well worth the trip, as the Northwest's largest anime convention. Several Kumoricon Directors and members of our Registration Team had an amazing time, meeting all of the loyal attendees and interested first-timers who stopped by our booth to chat with us and reminisce. KC Con Chair Beau Gentry and I spoke with Mike Stark, the 2011 Sakura-Con Convention Chair, after Opening Ceremonies and had a chance to see just how fun working with the Sak team is!

Meanwhile, back at the Kumoricon booth in the Exhibitors' Hall, the Reg Team was busy taking pictures of all the fabulous cosplayers holding our poster! We had so much fun talking with all the great staff and attendees at Sakura-Con that we never wanted to leave. But, as is the case with every con, when the end came and we parted ways, we all made plans to see each other again at Kumoricon in the Fall. With all the special memories from this year's Sakura-Con, I am sure everyone who attended is excited for the next big event!
