Hey guys, my guy and I are looking for someone to carpool with to Nebkon. We can pitch in on the gas, but our car cannot make it on a 3 hour trip, we can make it as far as sioux falls and then get the ride. Please drop a line or a pm if you can help us

Pants / Help on Costume
« on: July 21, 2011, 10:05:22 PM »
Guys, is there a store in Sioux Falls where I can buy a wig? I don't mind if I have to dye it, as long as it is not too expensive. A theater wig will work just fine. If I order a wig online I run the risk of it not arriving in time and the ones that seem to be perfect are way too expensive at the moment. Please suggestions.

I think you are wrong, everyone who really lovesthe con is making their biggest effort. And yes it is short notice and it looks like it will be hard, but critisizing and accepting defeat will help much less.

I was one of those who pre-reged last year on Sunday and I am not asking for my money back. Instead I am making  efforts to donate some more.

People I instead of accepting my Con is gone, prefer to listen to Dylan Thomas
"Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rage at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light. "

If it doesn't work at least we tried

It is not a stupid idea, but unfortunetly it would not work.
There are two types of sponsors:
1. Those who do it for profit. (Corporate)
2. Those who don't. (Anime fans)

#1 will only sponsor an event if the believe they can get a return on their investment.  ie an increase in profits is greater then the more they put in.  Because Sogencon is so small, the return on investment is very low and a major reason that you won't see corperate sponsors lining up.  About the only sponeser we can get would be stores that sell anime and manga in the Sogencon area.  But even then they cannot sponsor much, (usually they help by buying stalls in the dealer room), because they won't be making a large profit at Sogencon.

As for the idea of Coke, Pepsi, or Lays...   We are not actually allowed to sell any food or drink at the convention center.  We had to get special permision just to allow the dealer to sell japanese food and drinks.

Because of the issues associated with group #1, that is why we are reaching out to group #2.

I see, well it makes sense now. Maybe we should make a fund raiser, when I was in school we used to sell chocolates and stuff like that

I know this is the stupidest idea I could come up with. But have you tried finding sponsorship from certain businesses? Like lets say, Corporate sponsorship from Coca cola or Lays, in exchane of being the Drink or chips of Sogen Con 11?

I know it may have already been done but sometimes corporate sponsorship could work. Meanwhile we will keep trying to make Sogen Con happen ^_^
