FallCon is a boardgame and tabletop miniatures convention for the masses held every fall in Calgary. Consider FallCon a philosophical extension to those fun Friday game nights you spend with family and friends! Against a backdrop of fun and friendly competition, gamers young and old are invited to join us in playing some of the best games available today.
October 15-17, 2010

Calgary Boardgame Meet-Up Group:
http://www.meetup.com/boardgames-33/
Meeting locations and times:
We meet several times a month at various locations spread out across the city. I am always looking for additional locations to hold Meetups. If you know of any venues that you'd like to host a regular gaming day/night at, please let us know.
Occasionally when the mood strikes, members of the group may also host gaming nights from their house or other locations such as pubs and coffee houses. Should you wish to host your own boardgame night, please contact Jasen and he'll post a new event to the group site. Smoking, drinking and eating rules are at the discretion of the host.
Who can come?
The game nights are open to all individuals. The core of the group consists of young-to-middle-aged professionals and university/college students. Attendance is generally around 30% women, 70% guys - I'm aiming for parity! Essentially if you have any interest in playing board or card games, there's room for you in our group. Friends and family members are always encouraged to join us as well.
