RAINCON AND THE CLALLAM BAY COMICON MAY BE RETURNING! If it does, it's coming back July 7-9, 2023, during Sekiu Fun Days
Links to other Peninsular (Olympic and Kitsap) Comics, gaming, cosplay, maker conventions:
Because we lost our "convention hotel" (B&B) when the owner took a well-deserved retirement, and I'm the Fairy Godmother for SquatchConPA, Clallam Bay Comicon is on hold for the forseeable future. But I'm leaving everything in black below, so anybody who wants to hold their own comicon can copy the basics and use it to hold their own. Send me an invite when you do!

HOW TO HOLD YOUR OWN COMICON, the Basics:

For Clallam Bay, a good idea would be to rent an RV and share with other vendors.

So glad we came up and listened to Jake. Got to visit with you briefly, and we'll see what we can make happen in Forks. I think Evan and I have the outline of a plan. GREAT JOB DONNA. Glad that you have continued to do this much needed event!
