2010/09/13 End of an Era - It is with great regret that I announce the closure of SOAP. There are many reasons for this, which I will not go into. I do want to make it known that I do not regret one day of running this club. It has been an honour and a pleasure to serve the many fans and businesses in the Ottawa region. I hope and believe that the fandom will continue for many more years.

This closure affects only our events. Our web sites (Ottawa-Anime.Org, SOAP.Ottawa-Anime.Org and all its affiliates) will continue to be hosted here. The forums will continue to remain open for the Ottawa fandom to use and enjoy as an online community.

Thank you once again everybody for eleven years of wonderful memories.

Curtis Ireland (Co-Chair or SOAP)
