Meeples for Peeples

Today we dropped off our donation to the Alaska school districts.
We shipped (approximately) 124 games!! Total of 232 pounds worth of games across 6 large boxes and two heavy duty totes. Shipping cost was a whopping $825.05!!
These should be arriving in Alaska by the end of the month and then they will distribute the games across the state to several school districts, including the Aleutian Islands!
We are so honored that we are able to be a part of this and help them bring gaming into so many kids and their families lives!

We're all set up at Pride St. Charles! Stop by for fun raffles or a chance to win some great games.

Check it out! Nine PBS covered the most recent Game Nite Garage Sale, and gave our Director the spotlight for a bit to talk about what we do!

Also prepping for St. Charles Pride, get ready for more Plinko and game giveaways to help fund a pallet to the biggest state that's the most difficult to get things to!
