As Adam said this year was simply an amazing year. Not only did we raise just over $22,000 for Turner Syndrome Society of the US but everything went amazingly smooth and everyone seemed to have a blast! Food was great the giveaways were even better then ever and people had a smile on their face all day long!
I cannot thank Scott and Crystal from The Gamers Armory enough for their hospitality over these 5 years. They have been great and we simply could not have had such success without them.
Also I would like to thank Adam S who manned this site extremely well and ran a killer contest leading up to the event. And his graphic design skills for the programs were simply second to none. THANKS so much for your help and guidance Adam!
Another person who I wanted to thanks for his help with this and that and also for running the play to win games is Chris Mosley. Thanks buddy!
Not to be forgotten as well is our social media Guru herself Laura Drew, well done as always!
I cannot leave out Matt Wolfe who has helped me all year long from cons to extra bags for the swag bags and taking the time to do the geek list of the WALL on BGG. Thanks so much buddy.
And of course I cannot thank the volunteers from TSSUS NC chapter who came out to help us man the tables and talk to people and spread more information and awareness about Turner Syndrome.
Last but MOST important of all, thanks to my beautiful wife and family. Janice Lauren, and DJ helped out for months and months and put up with my stressing, and did a fantastic job helping out the day of the event. I love you guys so much.
I am going to put the list of the winners of the wall items and the big ticket items at the bottom of this post. If you are on this list and have not heard from us or the store please let me know by commenting on this post and I will get in touch with you ASAP.
In the coming weeks I will be posting some re-caps from marathoners who would like to share their experiences with GFC with all of you out there. If you would like to share with us as well PLEASE comment on the posts or mail us directly!
Thanks so much for all of your support. Stay tuned in weeks to come for more re-caps and more information for next year as well.
