Thanks to the hard work of our board members and volunteers, and the support of our fabulous gaming community, FlamingoCon #27 was a roaring success! We welcomed over 170 players on Saturday, by far the most that we’ve ever hosted in this venue. New friends were made, new games were played, and new faces were greeted with open arms, as we bonded over our enthusiasm for this hobby we all share. In honor of our 10th Anniversary, the FlamingoCon board was thrilled to offer free pizza and cake to attendees, many of whom have been with us from the start! A million thanks to all… we couldn’t do this without you!
