Board Game Bash is next weekend, August 1-3, and it's shaping up to be a ton of fun once again. I wanted to send out a reminder that today (Sunday) is the last day to pre-register for the convention. Pre-registered attendees will save $10 versus paying at the door, get a custom made name badge, and early signup for events. The convention will be at the Hilton Garden Inn Downtown, just off I-35S between 5th and 6th Streets.

Hope to see you all there!

PS: Wondering about the MYSTERY GRAB BAGS? Pre-registrations were higher than ever, so the standard allotment of 200 grab bags was met earlier this month. I did buy extra materials to make some reserve grab bags, but I won't know exactly how many until bag assembly is complete. So people registering at this point may still get a bag, but it isn't guaranteed. Bags are allocated on a first-registered, first-bagged, basis, so up your chances to get one by signing up sooner than later.
