The last few time a group of Ohio players has met it has been asked if we are considering running events at Origins this coming year or holding out and going to GenCon instead.
I have finally been able to speak with the folks at GAMA about the status of the club and the upcoming convention. Origins is being held from May 30 - June 3rd this year. These dates fall a bit earlier in the year than normal for the con and it is a Holiday Weekend. I believe attendance will be down some this year early in the week due to school being in session. GAMA is making efforts to make the convention more affordable this year, including providing cheaper hotel rates in the Convention reserved blocks of rooms.
I need to know how many of our members are interested in attending the con this year, who wishes to run events or assist with events. Anyone signing up will receive half price admission to the con. There will likely be a few free tickets and perhaps rooms for those who participate in running events. it all just comes down to the numbers...
I also want opinions if the group would rather attend GenCon this year so I can look into those details if needed.
Speak up soon please as we will be on a deadline to submit events to Origins by February 1st this year.
