Schedule and Event Descriptions:

>>> 6:00 – 7:15 ~ Snack & Mingle <<<
Warn up with some light refreshments and fun activities while meeting fellow anime and cosplay fans. Attractions include a doodling board, wishing arch, tarot card love fortune reading, and much more!

>>> 7:15 – 7:50 ~ Cosplay Contest <<<
* Format: Strut your stuff in front of the audience and our panel of judges. Strike a signature pose for your character and briefly tell us about who you’re cosplaying as and some things about your costume (e.g. hand-made or bought?)
* Prizes: One Audience’s Choice Winner, and One Judges’ Choice Winner

>>> 7:50 – 8:00 ~ Random Ticket Raffle Draw <<<
Make sure you keep your ticket stub in order to have a chance at winning cool prizes!

>>> 8:00 – 8:30 ~ Telephone! <<<
Hello? Say what? Join us for the classic and hilarious game of Telephone! Participants will split into two teams and past down the same whispered message to compare how twisted it becomes at the end. Get ready for some ridiculousness; even we don’t know what these messages will turn into!

>>> 8:30 – 9:00 ~ Open Mic: Cheesy Pick-Up Lines! <<<
“If you were a Pokemon, I’d choose you~ ♥”
Not good enough? Then we challenge you to bring your favorite, funniest, and most cheesy pick-up lines to charm the crowd with!

>>> 9:00 – 10:00 ~ Dance <<<
Ate too many Valentine’s chocolates? Burn that extra energy away dancing to a variety of anime and dance tunes!

Rules:

– As with any public cosplay event, the rules against indecent exposure apply. Your costume must cover all parts of the body that should be covered. No going shirtless. No bare feet.

– Props should be safe to yourself and those around you. Do not bring sharp items, gun props that can shoot anything, metal, etc. When in doubt, please post on this event page to ask if something is safe to bring.

– Do not swing swords or other large props; careless horseplay can be very dangerous to the people around you.

– The school prohibits alcohol at unlicensed events so please do not bring drinks.
