An image featuring the Woo-Con! 2015 Vendor floor and a performance of a
student music group from Bowling Green State University, "GAME".
A big event like Woo-Con! wouldn't be able to happen without plenty of help and commitment from volunteers, staffers, panelists, vendors, and college students with a bit too much free time on their hands.
Also, we would like to give a special thanks to The Wooster Daily Record for writing a spotlight on our 2017 convention, and featuring us both in online and print editions of their newspaper! We're honored! Check it out here.
Thanks again to all of our partners and volunteers for making the event a huge success!
