Matsuri 2006 Report

Thanks to all the members who attended and to the festival attendees who stopped by our table. We talked to many, many people who are interested in anime. I was pleased to see people of all ages: as young as junior high all the way up to senior citizens. I always say "No matter what you like, there's an anime genre for you" and I really believe that.

We gave away lots of papers. Our Texas Anime Conventions sheet was probably the most frequently picked up one. I am sorry that I was not aware of the San Antonio anime convention at the time that I created the sheet. I've added a link to that here.

Texas Anime Conventions
--------------------------
Oni-Con - October 20-22, 2006 in Houston
Ushiko's Anime Block Party - January 26-28, 2007 in Austin
A-Kon 18 - June 1-3, 2007 in Dallas
San-Japan - July 13-15 in San Antonio

We had a great time and look forward to next year. I have to say that I particularly enjoyed the Kendo demonstration.

Changing subjects, our next meeting is coming up on Friday, Oct 20th. We'll be showing "Pet Shop of Horrors" in honor of Halloween. Hope to see you there!
