Saturday, November 22nd New Game in Town will be hosting it's annual food drive event!

This year we will be holding a 100 point dogfight event for X-wing players so bring a lot of canned, boxed, or any non-perishable food item, a good X-wing list and prepare for a good time.

When: Saturday, November 22nd. Doors open at Noon and first round will start at 1:00. I am planning for three rounds.

Cost: Five cans, boxes, or non-perishable food items. This will get you registered for the X-wing event. But read below and bring more food!

Prizes: There will be a raffle at the end of the day (about 5:00-5:30) for a variety of prizes ranging from a Wargaming Industries 36" x 36" playmat, X-Wing Tokens, X-Wing movement templates and more! The top four spots in the X-Wing dogfight will get raffle tickets to put towards the prizes they want.

1st place = 20 tickets

2nd place = 15 tickets

3rd place = 10 tickets

4th place = 5 tickets

However everyone can get tickets!! For every can, box, or non-perishable food item you bring in (beyond the 5 item entry fee) will score you a ticket!! Bring in 50 food items, get fifty tickets!

Last year we had bad weather in December but we were able to still bring in a lot of food. Hopefully this year the weather is better and we can double what we did last year!

Just to follow up on this event... we had six X-Wing players attend that brought in 204 food items for our local food pantry.

It was a great event. We had a lot of laughs and some tight games. I hope all who were able to make it out had a good time and thank you so much for your generous donations.

Have a great holiday and we hope to see more people next year!
