Zenkaikon 2022 – Did You Miss Me, Lancaster?
May 11th, 2022
Ari Rockefeller I can’t begin to tell you about how much I missed going to conventions (though I may have mentioned it once or twice before). And while I may have consolidated the number of cons I go to in any given year, especially after the plague times have fallen upon us, that doesn’t make them any less enjoyable. Especially with a con like that that I have been looking forward to for a long time, and very much enjoy going back to. Which is how I finally, finally found myself back in Lancaster county one fine Spring weekend.
We finally made our way back to Zenkaikon in Lancaster, PA, at the Lancaster County Convention Center, with us staying at the Lancaster Marriott once again. As beloved as this convention has become with us, suffice to say, anticipation was heavy leading up to it.
