    Sadly, and despite telling Neil I would GM a game, I have since found out that two of my best mates have unhelpfully decided they will be getting married that weekend, and rather unsportingly refuse to change the date for some reason Looks as if I'm not going to make it now

    Sorry for the newbie questions but...

    What's the situation regarding events like Doncaster 2018?
    Can anyone attend?
    Is their a cost?
    Do you have to attend the whole event?

    If there's a thread with all the relevant information, sorry about this interruption.
    Thanks in advance.

    Any one can attend Neil, you can pick what day or all of them, whatever you can do, you'll be made most welcome - relevant threads will appear in the News & Announcements section at the top of the Forum page in the Doncaster Con sub-forum here as well as in the UK Wing. If you intend to stay over the tip is book accommodation early.

    To add a bit more, the Doncaster event is purely for Wings /Sails forum members, there is a charge , normally, which is the price of the venue split berween the attendees.

    For other shows, these are generally a Wargames show that we have either requested a table or been asked by the organisers to book a table. If you attend as a member of the public you will have to pay the entrance fee to the show.
    If you volunteer to assist running/helping out on the table we can normally get four to six people in free.
    Look at the various show threads in the Uk sub forum for details or if just Doncaster that thread but as has been said to get in the nearby hatel book early.
    You dont have to stay the whole weekend or both days at a show, it is up to you

    Watch this space for some news about our 2018 event. Following the success of the Lend Lease raffle we held this year, we have decided to run a couple of raffles between now and next September - the aim this time is to raise enough funds so that the Doncaster event is absolutely free for everyone to attend, and if we exceed the room booking amount we can help towards prizes, keeping the beer fridge full ( a nice addition this year I must confess) geting some food in for lunch on a Saturday etc etc.

    So we will put our heads together, see what we can rustle up in the way of prizes and then put our first raffle on.

    Same as this year though, this simply wouldn't work without the support encourageent and participation of you all

    We will start up a new thread when we are good to go
