ATTENTION MINNESOTA FANGIRLS


We did this two years ago and thought it would be fun to have another JE fanmeet at the Como Park Japanese Lantern Lighting Festival. :D

WHERE: Como Zoo Conservatory (directions / map)
WHEN: Sunday, August 15. The gates open at 3:00 pm with the lantern-lighting around sunset.
COST: $5 to enter, plus additional money if you want to buy food or other things

I'm tentatively planning on having everyone meet shortly after it opens, around 3-3:30ish maybe? However, parking that day is insane, so it's a good idea to arrive about a half an hour early. I think the easiest place to meet would be in front of the Visitor's Center (map). I'll be the crazy girl with the Sho uchiwa. :Db The entrance to the festival itself is in front of the conservatory building. If you can't arrive until later in the day, message me. I can give you my cell number so we can connect once you arrive. :)

There will probably be time to just hang out and chat, so bring along any magazines/photobooks/goods to pass around and fangirl over. :D

Comment here or at the Facebook event if you're planning on coming so I can get a rough count on how many people to expect. Or leave a comment if I'm forgetting something because I probably am. XD;

I would really love to go, but I have the same issue as the person above me.

Plus this would be my first one of these, and I don't know if I'd be comfortable going alone...

Which issue? Being a fan of only one group? A lot of us have one main group we are fans of, but of the girls I know, we have fans of pretty much each and every group. :D

I was really nervous for my first fanmeet, but we're all really friendly and nice. :D And you're more than welcome to bring a friend, even if they're not into JE. XD

Probably the transportation issue. Depending on how far out people live, there is Metro Transit.

Oh, I guess I pressed comment instead of reply.

Actually, I only like NEWS... XD Well, I've been thinking of going to the festival anyway, so I will probably show up. :D

I got into JE through NEWS (then expanded to other groups) and we have other NEWS fans, so I don't think you'll be alone. I hope you can make it! :D
