The Dragon Con Report

We are well past the yearly halfway point to Labor Day weekend, and Dragon Con will be here before we know it! Mike, Mike, Nikki, and Darren are here to help prepare with news and tips. Kevin Bachelder helps guide us through the new registration process, and we speak to Dragon Con Charities Director Jennifer Breland about the many ways DC gives back to the community both inside and outside the con. Plus, Deena from “The Last Dragon Con” parody video is featured in our Cosplay Snapshot. Sing it with us, “Think we may have gone to far, whoa-oh! But this Dragon Con, do it all again!”

Dragon Con 2013 is behind us now, but the fond memories, con crud, and the numerous buckets o’ rum will live with us forever. Mike, Mike, the award-winning author Bobby Nash, Mary Lou Who, Nikki Rau-Baker, and rookie Raven, tell their tales of survival among the record-setting crowd. Though one can never be truly prepared for Dragon Con, our year-long review of tips, interviews, and news reports came in handy and we had one of the best cons ever! So much so that we’ll need the next few months to recover. We’ll be back in January for our first look at Dragon Con 2014!!!
