Our first ever MagnaCon convention was a great success! Thanks to all those who attended. Fun was had, money was raised, games were played... all the important points were hit. Photos can be seen here. We're looking forward to the three day convention again in 2011, the dates for which will be announced later. For the rest of 2010, look for additional smaller MagnaCon charity gaming events throughout the year.
