Forget something at home ?

Gamezcenter is centrally located west of Rosedale Mall shopping complex. Walmart, Target and a plethora of other stores are within a few miles also.

Airport

Gamezcenter is 20 Miles from the Minneapolis Saint Paul (MSP) International Airport.

MSP – Has two terminal buildings.

I HIGHLY recommend staying off the Light Rail unless going from one terminal to another or to the Mall of America.

Parking

Gamezceter will have on premise parking and right across the street at the Salvation Army building. I encourage people to car pool if possible especially if in inclement weather.

The main organizer appears to be a guy called Victor Dorzo.

Now, if you are doing an event to honor Dave Arneson, by all means don't tell the number one Blackmoor fan in the universe about it. Victor Dorzo was an unknown name to me untill recently, but I guess he doesnt need to be a Dave Arneson expert to be a good convention organizer. Nice to see that David Wesely is on board with this. I don't know who the "Dave Arneson's Blackmoor crew" refers to. I tend to think it is the Original Blackmoor Players, but the name could also mean the people behind the d20 Blackmoor line.


Anyone know anything about this?
