That's right, our next event will be held in Grande Prairie, Alberta. We are hoping to have it at the end of February or beginning of March.

This will be a scaled down version of our normal summer event. You can expect some fun tournaments, door prizes, official tournaments and a whole lot of fun - just like our big event. This smaller event will be 3 days instead of 4 and Registration will open near the end of October.

Here is a link to the basic directions to get from Edmonton to Grande Prairie for those of you who don't know where it is. The time required from the City Limits is only about 4.5 hrs at the speed limit, so ignore what Google Maps tells you!

Please check the Transportation forum to discuss arrangements to get there.

As always, we hang out in IRC so feel free to stop by with any questions you may have. Check back often for updates!

Depending on dates, I'd certainly be interested.

Sorry, it's a bit too far for me to travel. I'd love to go, but... Lethbridge to GP is too much :(

This is great for people in fort mac or deadmonton I guess.. not so great for calgarians... 8+ hour drive one way for a mini lan.. too much :( I would love to go though.

Takkyu, try being another 3 hours south of Calgary... I'd have almost 1000km to travel if I wanted to go to GP for it.

Honestly, I'd be willing to... if I had a ride.

You could always keep an eye out for seat sales. Ive seen flights from GP to calgary for less then $100.00 one way.

Just an idea.

That's not a bad drive...

And now that I have a better car for taking 3 people I'll still have to leave the chairs at home, but whatever.

If stuff gets sorted out for me I'll go. :)

Hell, if people have to fly up and I like you I can even put a few people up at my house.
