Food Inc.’s Official site

For the past few years, I’ve always tried looking out for healthier alternatives to what we’re use to. Picking out the organic fruits and vegetables, free range eggs… After watching this story we’re boosting up our attention to where our food comes from, before scanning it at our local grocery store’s the cash register ;) It certainly takes more time and heavier for the pockets — but… alternatives? Just need to find a good local butcher shop now.

Game Summit Ambassadors

Game Summit Winter Skirmish 2009 is sneaking up on us with a week away, I’d like to thank the 35+ Ambassadors who will be making this event a success. It’s a lot of work to bring a Game Summit Skirmish to life, and we make those events special by getting a little help from our friends.

Ambassadors T-Shirts are in!

We have enough Ambassadors for this upcoming event, but if you’ve ever thought you’d like to lend a little help to upcoming Game Summits and use a little of your talents and knowhow to make our Skirmishes the best they can be then the Game Summit Ambassador program may be the thing for you! We have plans to kick-off annual Game Summits in 6 cities across the country + a national event hosting major tournaments. To accomplish this mission we will be launching our official Ambassadorship program this spring.
