SoDak Con
SoDak Con formerly called SoDak Anime Convention, was an annual three-day anime convention held during May/June at the Rushmore Plaza Civic Center in Rapid City, South Dakota. The name of the convention comes from the state that the convention is located in, South Dakota. The convention typically offered art, a charity auction, costume contest, fashion, Japanese fashion show, music videos, speakers, table-top gaming, vendors, video games, and a video room. The convention origins date to the Waldenbooks in the Rushmore Mall. In 2011 an auction was held and the proceeds were donated to the Children's Miracle Network. Fifty percent of the attendees in 2013 were not from the area. = SoDak Con Website
