Weekend on the Cheap for September 16th – 18th, 2016…
Due to time constraints, our blog posting has been very infrequent but we wanted to post this event and hope that you will share:
The Interactive Museum of Gaming and Puzzlery (IMOGAP) is hosting a 24-hour Raffle and Game-A-Thon this weekend from noon on Saturday until noon on Sunday. The museum in danger of losing their lease and this event will help to keep the doors open. All you need to do is sign up to be a participant and show up and play! An anonymous donor has provided the IMOGAP a generous incentive for gamers: each player will earn $10 an hour for the museum, so come on out and lend your support! Please check out their Facebook page or homepage for more information. With over 4500 games on hand, the museum is the largest publicly accessible collection of board games in the United States.
