To Bay Area/ Nor Cal Hetalia peeps~ Planning post!
Since the Fanime reunion seemed to be a hit, and since there was a lot of interest from people who either couldn't attend or weren't at Fanime, I'd like to organize a gathering for a little later this month (or this summer, if that works better for the most people) for anyone who sees this message who can get to San Francisco when it's planned; cosplayers, photographers, general Hetalia fans, all of ya'll!
Nothing is set at all at this point, so your input is vital! General feedback seems to put any potential gathering in at least two weeks' time, so starting the 21st, what weekends work best for you all? (Keep in mind holidays and conventions and such) I'd say from the 21st of June until mid-August, when schools start to go back as limit.
Another point of interest is where would you like this to take place? There are multiple options: Meet in Golden Gate Park for a picnic/potluck sort of thing, take pictures, and that would be it, or trek off into the city somewhere after the picnic, or skip GGP entirely and start off somewhere else, like Japantown, and not have a picnic. Again, your input is vital! The more people there are, the better GGP or a different outside location would work rather than a downtown point.
For now, what times work (or don't work) for you, and whether you'd be interested in going into the city at all (as the more people who are interested, the more it'll probably be relegated to going after a picnic in a park, most likely GGP). Thanks guys! :D
this is the Chibitalia without an HRE from Fanime, in case anyone was wondering~

bisouspapillon mentioned something that might be appealing to you guys: I don't know how many of you guys live in the city, or in the South Bay or Peninsula, but maybe holding it at a park on the other side of the bay, maybe Cordonices in Berkeley. (1204 Euclid Ave, Berkeley; it's right in the middle, with The Alameda and Grizzly Peak forming N/S borders, and Marin Ave. and Cal forming E/W borders. There will be people who are willing to drive people from BART stations (either North Berkeley or Downtown Berkeley) to Cordonices.) How many of you would be interested if it were held somewhere else around the Bay?
