FRIDAY NITE SNEAK PREVIEW: Featuring the first public showing of MARTIAL LAW 2123! Informal visit and rap sessions at the lounge at the Radisson Hotel (formely Holiday Inn) at 150 West Fourth Street in downtown Jamestown beginning anytime, but definitely by 7:00 PM. This is a popular tradition and a chance for people to meet informally prior to the planned festivities during the weekend. Tom always makes it a point to attend. You can order food and drink and talk about COTG, LOW, and maybe even nongame topics, but then again, why waste time on real-world subjects?

SATURDAY MORNING TOURNAMENT AT COMIC BOOK SHOP: Go to Chautauqua Comics at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday morning for special game tournaments prior to the start of GalactiCon!

From Jamestown Community College take Falconer to Lakeview and turn left on Lakeview. Go to 6th Street and turn right. Continue straight until 6th Street becomes Fairmount Avenue. Look for Chautauqua Comics on the right side at 214 Fairmount Avenue. The tournaments will take place from 10:00 to 11:30.

Chautauqua Comics features a great selection of comic books, games, action figures, and other great stuff!

SUNDAY BRUNCH BRAWL: This could be the start of a new tradition! Join a group of wild attendees at a special Sunday brunch at 10a.m. at Friendly's in downtown Jamestown. We'll talk CotG and LoW and whatever everyone wants to talk about. What a great way to wind down after a fun weekend!

The Friday Nite Sneak Preview and Sunday Brunch Brawl are great bookends for the incredible event called GalactiCon!

AUCTION: Several rare items will be available at the annual GWF auction. If game fans would like to sell GWF collectibles at the auction, be sure to contact Tom and your items might also be included.
