I mentioned awhile back that I started a game store. It's clean and well lit, well stocked, and well, lit. I just got a Street Fighter II in. And it plays for free.
Anyway, on March 31st, to give myself and excuse to take a day off with the family on Sunday, I'm running not 1, but 4 events.
10AM-2 PM: Heroscape tournament. $5 entry fee or bring a map to share. 400 points/ 16 figure limit. keep it brisk and fun.
1-2PM: Raffle sign up
2-3 PM: Staggered egg hunts based on age groups. Raffle ticket holders' kids can enter, there will be coins and small bills in the eggs.
2:30-4: tons of poke/mtg/fftcg singles will be out. there will be $.10/.25/$1 tables, with piggy banks out. Essentially the honor system. kids can use their egg money to buy cards for their collections.
4:30 ¡BUST THE PIÑATA! I've had this thing sitting there forever. it happens to look like a red bunny. there will be vouchers for games, and the guys in the ensuing magic draft will run in after to grab their 3 packs for the draft.
5-8 PM: MtG Chaos Draft. [If there's interest, I may also run a concurrent FFTCG Draft]
8-11PM Social Deduction/Team games party evening. Captain Sonar, Avalon, 2 rooms 1 boom, superfight, etc...
