Come by boat down the York or the James.
You sure you got more food than last year?
Did you decide on a flea market?
I had a great time by the way.
I'll be sightseeing in billyburg columbus day weekend with some cousins.

There are wargamers who can afford to buy a boat? Man what am I missing?!?!?!

You are quite correct though, come by boat if you like plenty of dock space is available in the area by the way!!!!!

As for the Flea Market the response we got was there were lots of buyers, but no sellers! So we've shelved the idea for now till we get some interested sellers.

We're working to make every year better then the last, so you will be happy to keep coming back!!

See you there!!

As far as making it better, we have added another approximately 1400 square feet with the addition of the Lafayette/Berkley Room AKA more gaming space and tables.

We are also putting together club run game tables to run games throughout the weekend. Andy and the Southern Maryland Partisans did this last year and it worked out great, I think for Andy, Tim, Rich and Co., and we want to do it again this year with any clubs that are interested. Paul who is on this thread is running this, so if he hasn't gotten in touch with you get in touch with him.

I wish I could make it again this year, alas it's a long trip from Afghanistan. Make sure its a good one so there will be a third year for me to go to.

Well, we can't change the Hotel's restaurant, but the bar serves good food, and is open from lunch time until 2 in the morning.

The convention will be offering a Hospitality Suite with snacks and drinks (complimentary for attendees).

Besides, we all love gaming, and when you are in love, you don't need food or drink! :)

Sounds like a great show. I cannot wait to give it a try.best way from the South? Up 1-95 and then over from below Petersburg?

Rudy, you might want to Google/Mapquest it.

We normally travel I-85 to I-95, then pickup a state
road S of Petersburg to the P'burg by-pass (I-295 ??)
to I-64 E to W'burg.

Coming from Alabama, you might want to consider a
combo of I-7x to I-81 to I-64 at Charlottesville then
straight E.

Rob – I'll call the hotel and check into that.
