Retro Con 2018 is in the books and we would like to express our utmost thanks to everyone that attended! We realize we don’t necessarily have the mainstream appeal of comic cons, or the party atmosphere of other conventions, but we like to think Retro Con attracts a very sincere and “grassroots” audience. We’re proud to host a convention where everyone checks their ego at the door and are there simply for their love of retro culture. We wouldn’t want it any other way.

We would like to thank all of our spirited attendees, our awesome vendors, all of our wonderful guests, everyone that helped add to the show’s atmoshere by dressing in costume, the press and news outlets that covered the show, the car owners and costume groups, the Cybertronic Spree for proving the sequel can be better than the original, everyone that helped run events in the panel area, the Game is Afoot Arcade, our A/V tech for the year Tom Dalton, Candice Santora for sponsoring Garry Chalk’s appearance, Arnold’s Family Fun Center, and the Greater Philly Expo Center for having us!

And of course our biggest thanks goes to our staff and volunteers! As usual, without them the show literally could not happen, and we appreciate their invaluable dedication and sacrifice every year.

Our staff and volunteers this year include Tom Jacobs, Wayne Kline, Greg Boyle, Anthony Kyzer, Chris Scheetz, Charles Piner, Nick Govosdian, Logan Moran, Mike Breaux, Tim Plakas, Dean Plakas, Mike Colasanti, Nate Kipphorn, Kyle Williamson, Kevin Jones, Erica Lindsey, Jim Cannon, Mike Townsend, Zach Townsend, Joe Fiore, Matt & Courtney March, Greg Hammaker, Trick Treat, Nagi Oki, Rob Brand, Leslie AuFancy, Wendy Wassmer, Brandon Wassmer, Jack Doud, TJ Becker, Gary Lane, Kristy Sproul, Denise Marie, and Candice Santora. You guys are the best!!

Once again, thank you to everyone that attended or supported the show!

Sincerely,   Tony & Rose
