Designers and Players Wanted

I am helping to organize a board game convention in Kansas City.  The 
convention is effectively swallowing three other local conventions: 
Blockhead (board games), ShaunCon (RPG's) and Border Wars (miniatures.)

If you have something you want to test out, or are just looking for a 
good gaming experience, let me know. 

KC Game Fair (www.kcgamefair.com) is November 19-22, 2009.  There are 
also a group of us that play board games every Thursday night at 
TableTop Game and Hobby at 105th and Metcalf in Overland Park.

Thanks,
Dale

you have a form u use u can send me?

Thanks!

My hubby and I LOVE games and I have 5 kids... 7 and under... but my 
two oldest are advanced and can play Ticket to Ride, Settlers of Catan 
and Scrabble with ease!? Email me fi you want us to help you out!!!
