Right hope all the exams went ok for you all!
First thing to say is that we will be continuing to show anime
thorughout the summer! Every thursday in the Seminar Room from
7pm till 10pm. This Thursday coming will feature
7pm - Ghost in the Shell
8:30pm - Ghost in the Shell : Stand Alone Complex eps 1-3
Check out the page on showings to get an idea of what the anime
are about!
Second point - the AMS is now a seperate society from Japanese
soc. This means though that anyone who has signed up/paid money
they are a member of Japanese soc so sadly we have no money currently...
This did NOT stop us charging 900 euro of anime and manga to the SPC!
:D We hope to be getting this shipment soon.
We hope though to provide free refreshments to those who attend the
showings but to do this we need actual cash. So we will be opening
membership now for next year - i.e. you pay your 4 euro now and thats
good till September 2006!
Final point is that EirtaKon is doing great :D we have loads of sponsors
giving us loads of stuff to give away, we have an american documentary
crew interteresed in coming along, and we still got staff positions needing
filling :D If you are interested in helping us make this the BEST, not just
the first, anime con in Ireland sign up to the EirtaKon help list and
take one of these positions or just be a staff member!
