Cosplay Picnic Round 3 You Say ?!
« on: January 14, 2010, 02:47:19 pm »
cosplay: short for costume play, is a type of performance art in which participants don costumes and accessories to represent a specific character or idea.

picnic: a trip or excursion to the country, seaside, etc., on which people bring food to be eaten in the open air.

cosplay picnic: slightly silly random antics of geeks set outdoors....possibly seaside too :D



tis' the beginning of the year and once again its time to jump the gun of the upcoming cosplay picnic aka CosNic to keep it short. last year was a pretty cool turnout. weird humurous games, good people make all the difference. this year we should mimic this experience if not make it better I dare say.

for the last two years we've held the CosNic at FoxRun park in Monument, CO -slightly outside Colo Springs.  I think we agreed this would be the official spot for this gathering of geeks, but we can discuss that if need be. as always all thoughts and opinions will be considered and thought upon but ultimately if my Lt. doesnt like it, it aint happenin', well maybe. mwhahahahaha......

Remember as always for this even  !!No Weapons!!

So we need dates and questions answered so lets hit it!

Also..... !!Bigger Better Prizes!!

Place: FoxRun Park Colorado Springs/ Monument, Co

I love Foxrun park for this, we should definately keep it there! I have some stuff I can donate for prizes and I'll bring cookies too.
The person who says it cannot be done should not interrupt the person doing it.

I'm totally in for it staying at FoxRun!! especially since I live litterally ten minutes away lol
and I loved how it rained last time XD summer in the mountains for ya

I don't think I have anything to donate for prizes, but I can bring food or drinks again if we're that close to planning.
I may make a few of my legendary apple pies for everyone =D

any votes on a date? I really liked the timing last go-round, don't know what everyone else's thoughts are on this but I think around the same time-frame of July would work well....

May I go even if I don’t cosplay? I know my NDK 2010 cosplay won’t be ready; and I don’t know if I can get one ready by then.

I. Am. In. <3
I loved the park it was at last year, too, and I think it'd be lovely to have it in the same place.
And we will not get lost this time. >,>

Yay! Cosnic! Last year was amazing! I liked the park too, plenty of flailing room so I'm all for it. ^^ *Flails about in happiness* Now to wait 6 months... *Sigh*
And yes, not getting lost this year will be a bonus <3

I'm definitely in on this; last year was a real blast! As for dates I can usually only make weekends if you plan to be there when the suns out but other than that I don't know what my schedule looks like that far into the future. But if we know soon enough it will get priority. :nod nod:

Can we not have this overlap with the dates June 30th - July 5th?  I know a whole bunch of us are going to AX and don't want to miss this event due to being out of town. :(

Just something to keep in mind!

I'd definitely be interested, though as Ifria said, June 30th - July 5th is hectic for me as well seeing as it's my birthday July 5th lol. Maybe mid-July? It sucks really, because I only have one cosplay friend and he only likes to cosplay or go to cosplay events when they r cons o.o I need more cosplay friends xD Anyways, when dates r released, I'll see what I can do :p
