I am proud to announce Ani-Quest our first anime convention here in Arnold Maryland. It will be held at Anne Arundel Community College. We have several plans for this conventions a copy of what we have planned so far will be listed below. This convention will be held October 8th and 9th 10am-midnight both days. The convention has a limit of 600 registrations per day. So if you sign up for a 2 day pass that will take away a registration for both days. If you sign up for a one day pass that's why we ask you to clarify so we can take it off of the right day. Also that means anything we have left over from pre-registration will be available at the door. Check here for updates on what is left. It is vital that we get pre-registration early for it will be a great assistance in running the con. As for hotel rooms to stay at. We will post more information on local hotels. You will have to provide your own transportation to and from the con. We will also post local bus schedules and available taxi services if you need them. We appreciate your corporation.

Weapons THAT ARE NOT Permitted
NO LIVE STEEL at all will be permitted on the premises of the AACC.
Live steel is defined as swords, knives, bayonets, and/or other objects made of metal, which can take an edge. This holds true regardless of whether the object is actually sharp. This includes star knives/shurikens.

Pellet guns
Water guns
Air Guns
Replicas of actual guns
Real guns

Exceptions to Item 2.
Easily identifiable toy plastic guns with no moving parts and that have a clearly visible non-removable orange tip will be permitted.
Resin models will be permitted as long as they are marked with clearly visible non-removable orange tip.
The person carrying the pistol is a Maryland law enforcement agent who is on duty.
(Please keep in mind Maryland State Law has a silhouette law. Therefore you are at your own risk when carrying anything that resembles a gun.)
Nunchakus are not permitted.

Weapons Permitted
Wooden weapons that are permitted:

Please limit the size of the weapons to less than 8 feet in height.
Behavior with weapons
Misuse of any wooden weapon, such as swinging it in a public area or causing hazards to passerby, will get your privilege revoked immediately.
If we deem a weapon to be unsafe for the con, we will ask you to store the unsafe weapon in your car or back at your hotel room. If there is a repeat offense, we will escort you out of the convention and off of convention grounds so that you can place the weapon in your private quarters; if the weapon is illegal, we will turn it in to the appropriate authorities.
All objects brought into the convention may be checked and considered by AniQuest staff. You may be asked to have your weapons peace bonded at the con.
All questionable items will be decided on a case-by-case basis. Anything deemed illegal outside the convention is deemed illegal inside the convention premises. All of AniQuest's staff decisions on weapons are final. Policy maybe subject to change without prior notice.
