We are pleased to announce our 1st tabletop show on Oct.16, 2010 at the Hilton Garden Inn, in Oakdale MN.

Our chapter has gotten off to a great start and we are expecting a really good turnout. Some of the biggest companies in the industry will be joining us as well as visiting dignitaries from national. We will be hosting the first live Webinar on big screen TV with Wizard and Brian Wolf.

This show will also be our open and print competition judging and awards for the national competition. And!.....for those who are coming from other states and chapters, or are not eligible to be in the national competition, there will be a popular choice open competition (complete with ribbons and cash awards) where they can come to show off their skills as well. There will be a luncheon and cocktail/dinner party......with lots of great door prizes.
