WINTER WAR NEWS

Winter War is Turning 50!

Okay, so, maybe we turned 50 last year chronologically, but this is our 50th official event! It's sort of a huge deal, for us at least, and so we're hoping to make a big deal out of it for you as well!

Hotel Update

The hotel has a website for this year, and you can get there by visiting the official Holiday Inn Website, but we highly recommend making your bookings by phone, to ensure that you're included in our convention rate! These fine folks have been great hosts to us year after year, and we look forward to the same stellar treatment, convention space, and fresh food that we have had in past years.

Thank you all for your continued support! We look forward to seeing you all in February!
