Check it out.  There's an article on the Con and Anime in "The Oregonian" newspaper in the Living Section.

Just read the articlem on Oregonlive. It's pretty good. I expect that should bring some nice publicity.

I saw that article!  I quite literally jumped out of my chair, pointing at the paper, and yelled "I'M GOING TO THAT!!!"

My family thinks I'm crazy ^_^;;

Well, that's great!

The first con in Minnesota got no news coverage, but it was still pretty good. Not enough random glomping people though...

Wait... this is Kumoricon's first year? That doesn't sound right....

If you want to get technical...
It's the first KumoriCon in Portland.  The first actual KumoriCon happened in a hotel in Eugene/Springfield but that hotel is being torn down (no coincidence).
Again, getting technical, the last KumoriCon happened in late Nov. so it hasn't been a full year yet.  ^_^

I read the article too, it was very interesting, it even answered my question of why is this Con called KumoriCon!
