Thanks for a Successful Event at the Levee Café

Everyone I would like to thank everyone for another exciting and successful game that occurred last weekend at the Levee Café in Hastings. At the height of the game we had 20 players pushing more than 3200 figures on just over 150 square feet of table top. We are already planning our next big game.

I need to thank Brian Johnson and the Staff of the Levee Café; as always the food was excellent the staff helpful and the regulars curious about our games. What many people may not realize the Saturday morning breakfast was a "special" for us, as they don't normally serve Saturday morning breakfast.

Joel Gregory, who provided the lion share of the figures and many of the buildings on table, Jim Fitzgerald who provided the Russians and some French, and Keith Dalluhn, who provided his own troops, are just as responsible for making this game happen as I am.

I'm glad to say that from the positive comments we are looking forward to running additional games at the Levee Café and games of Horse Musket and Gun.

See you all next time.

Jeff Johnson.
