Port Angeles, the con's home, is nestled at the north edge of the Olympic National Forest. Squatchcon is a low-stress, kid-friendly, and disabled-accessible event where I always have a fun and relaxing time. Come on out and meet Darrell, the friendly 'Squatch, and enjoy the gaming, arts, fiction and cosplay panels, workshops, and silliness. Canada-accesible via the Blackball ferry from Victoria BC, an hour's drive from historic Port Townsend. It's a great small con in a truly amazing location.
