Yes, the race is on for the NOVAG BoD. We have in this issue the bios of five foolish ... ah, valiant souls who are putting themselves forward--or have been pushed from behind-for office. This past year the BoD has performed admirably, which is to say it has performed, adding local Game Days, a second convention, and increasing our coming big convention to a two-day event. We feel the four BoD members from this year who are running again have proven themselves and deserve your support. But that's only our opinion. You have the democratic option to vote for your leadership at GAMECON 17 this September. Come and cast your ballot, roll dice, toys, and have fun.
