VALLEY FORGE, PENNSYLVANIA – November 18, 2009: Zenkaikon is pleased to announce
the attendance numbers for its 4th annual convention, which took place on
November 7-8, 2009. The staff of Zenkaikon 2009 welcomed 1988 paid attendees
over the course of the two-day event, which is a 47% increase over the previous
year. This number does not include guests, dealers, staff, or complimentary
memberships.

"Zenkaikon has been growing extremely rapidly, with over 180% attendance growth
in the past two years," said Public Relations Coordinator Kristyn Souder. "Due
to the surge in interest, we had to implement an attendance cap this year. We
know this left some people disappointed, but we want to assure them that we are
already working on acquiring a much larger venue for next year's event! Thank
you to our many attendees for making Zenkaikon 2009 our biggest year ever."

The Zenkaikon staff looks forward to announcing their 2010 dates and location
shortly.
