Let me start with the bad news: Huzzah 2021 as you know it has been canceled. It was a difficult decision but after discussions with the hotel and taking into consideration lingering restrictions, we had to make a call. It would have been difficult to keep planning and decide on short notice. Game Masters and Vendors alike need time to plan and we wanted to be respectful of their time. BUT! Huzzah 2022 is going forward with a tentative date of 11-13 May 2022, so mark your calendars, sit back and wait for more info to come. Please do not contact the hotel yet asRead More →
