Green Mountain Gamers Transforms

Green Mountain Gamers' website has transformed!

We bid a fond farewell to our original Google Site and slip comfortably into the brand new www.greenmountaingamers.com, complete with social networking features. Now gamers from all over Vermont and the surrounding regions can browse the dynamic event calendar, register to make new friends and participate in discussion groups.

And, of course, we have all the latest information on Green Mountain Game Days, particularly the upcoming Summer Game 'n Grill. Surf on over and check it out!

As part of the move, this blog becomes dormant. This Week in Gaming and other posts of interest will continue, though, over at the new Green Mountain Gamers blog.

Summer Game 'n Grill 2010 is June 19th at Essex Memorial Hall

Yes, it's true. We've finally locked down a date and place for  the first Green Mountain Game Day. Saturday, June 19th at Memorial Hall in Essex Village, Vermont, Green Mountain Gamers hosts the first annual Game 'n Grill.

Where and When
The 2010 Summer Game 'n Grill takes place on Saturday, June 19th, from 10:00 AM to 10:00 PM. If you can't or don't want stay for the whole day, drop in when you can.
 
Memorial Hall is on Towers Road, just north of the intersection of Routes 15 and 128 in Essex. For directions and parking information, see the Summer Game 'n Grill page.
 
Games to Play
All tabletop games are welcome at Green Mountain Game Days: board games, miniatures, role-playing games, the whole megillah. We encourage people to share ahead of time what games they plan to share, so others can get suitably amped. Let us know via our Run a Game form and we'll post the information on the Summer Game 'n Grill page.

We're also working up some special treats, like a Dominion tournament, so keep an eye on the blog for more information on that.

What's Cooking?
The Summer Game 'n Grill in particular brings good food into the mix of good people and good games. We'll have a grill at the ready, so feel free to put some meat to the flame, or bring your preferred picnic-style comestibles.

How Much
While a Green Mountain Game Day doesn't have an admission fee, we do ask participants to make a $5-10 donation. This money goes directly to the cost of renting the hall and fuel for the grill. Any excess donated money helps pay for the next game day, helping to keep the gaming and good times rolling.
