We are thrilled this issue to announce that our store has been in business for 9 years! 9 years of laughs, games, a few drinks, a few tears, that one time with that one guy! Wow! So, in order to celebrate, you (yes, you) are invited to join us on Saturday September 17th for cupcakes, commemorative buttons, and other surprises you will just have to see to believe! This is a free event and we just want to thank you all in our community for making this possible! Here is to the 10th year and then 10 more and 10 more after that! etc...

As well, some of you might have noticed Cody was missing for a few days. Where did he go? On a well needed vacation to visit his family in Oklahoma! Cody has not traveled since the beginning of the pandemic and so had to play a lot of games to make up for lost time.

We believe strongly in family gaming and the bonds that it builds so we are happy to have him back but glad he got to spend a bit of time doing the thing that drives him! (Don't worry, he brought pictures and some ideas for new games to carry in the store.)
