League Night Recap for 6/26/18
Way back at the end of June (July was a busy month, OK?) we had the second league night of Season 11. The new Stern Army banner had been moved to its permanent location, so as we came in, we were greeted by Uncle Gary guarding the alcove. We had our first game switch-out of…

League Night Recap for 1/9/18 and 1/23/18
In preparation for League Night #3 tonight, I present to you… the belated recap of 1/9 (and apologies for 1/23)! Season 10 started on 1/9 with my first night as the new league director, and what a start it was. I expected a few new players; I didn’t expect half the participants to be new…
