Hey gang,
It’s the time of year again where we rally the troops and try to beat last year’s game count. At ZapCon 3.0 we were creeping up on 300 games. Let’s see if we can surpass it this year!

We’re offering the tried and true incentives:
-a weekend pass for every fully functional game you bring
-a collectible “Contributor” badge and lanyard that is unique from normal attendees
-early entrance to the event on both days

AND we’ve added:
-A free “ZapCon 4” t-shirt if you bring 5+ games
-access to the “Contributor Only” game time the Friday night before the event

We’ve got a couple more surprises in the works for you, so stay tuned!

Also, if you have a business or product you’d like to get in front of the southwest’s classic gaming community, we have vendor and sponsor opportunities available.

ZapCon is as much your event as it is ours, and I hope you take as much pride in it as we do. Word of mouth is the best way for people to find out about us, so PLEASE spread the word to other collectors and enthusiasts.

SO WHAT GAMES ARE YOU BRINGING?

Yes there will. As soon as I get the contract back from the Marriott, I'll post the information.

Awesome Jason! Thanks for being part of the show again!

The game pledges are coming in at a steady pace, but there’s still room for more! As another way to say thank-you, we’ve decided to give away a FREE ARCADE GAME to one lucky contributor! You will be entered into a drawing once for each game you bring to the show, so the more games you bring, the better your odds.

Want to get a weekend pass for ZapCon but short on cash? Want to help us put on an awesome show on a shoestring budget?

We're looking for volunteers! Give us a few hours and we'll give you a weekend pass! Contact wes [at] zapcon [dot] com to sign up.

Please do! I don't think we've had a Stern Star Trek at the show yet.

Thanks Mark!

Hot off the presses!
