Gamers who have had the pleasure of attending Advance the Colors in years past have enjoyed the Herald "Memorial" raffle, in which attendees can buy chances to win some great items, including miniatures (both painted and unpainted), terrain pieces, rules sets, books, etc. Well, once again, Advance the Colors will feature this popular event, to be held on Saturday, Sept. 18. Attendees can win cool stuff, as items will be given away throughout the day, with winning ticket numbers posted as they are drawn. All proceeds are used to fund the publication of the fine newsletter you are currently reading. All prizes are generously donated, not only by our members, but by several of our convention dealers and "Friends of HMGS Great Lakes" as well,

And, of course, we are once again accepting donations for this year's raffle. If you've got some gaming-related items sifting around the house gathering dust and you'd like to get rid of them while helping a worthy cause, bring them along to the convention! If anyone has any questions about this year's event, or has items they'd like to donate, please contact me at the address or phone number listed on page 1. Thanks!
