Please note the following changes in our reservation procedures:

Session #1 is from 5:30-7:00pm.

In order to minimize our ever-growing standby list we’re dividing our regular (3 hour) time slot into two separate (1.5 hour) sessions.

Pizza will be served at approximately 6:30pm

Each Session will have 18 slots plus a standby list.

Gamers can sign up for either the 5:30 session or the 7:00 session.

Everybody is guaranteed one and a half hours of game play with the possibility of three hours, depending on how many reservations we have for each session.
