Our final registration count was 727, nearly double our attendance from the previous year! The total number of fursuiters was 156, nearly 22% of all the attendees. Over the duration of the convention, the music from the dance broke 27 light bulbs and 6 light fixtures. Planning for next year has already begun, as we announnced our Guest of Honor for 2010, Mary Mouse.
