| Changes for 2012 |
Texicon is moving to a new location. We have worked hard to obtain a place that is more centrally located to down town Fort
Worth. Success! We are proud to announce that Texicon will be hosted at the Norris Center. This will also give us room to
grow. After asking around, we also decided that a lot of you wanted us to move to a new date. We listened. Starting in
2012, Texicon will occur on the 3rd full weekend of July.
We are now going to be in the beautiful Norris Center located in historic Sundance Square. The address and phone number
is: 304 Houston Street, Fort Worth, Texas 76102

| Special Guest |
Texicon is looking for a special guest to come to Texicon 2012. If anyone knows of a Board Game designer who would like to
come to Texicon please have that person contact Kevin Pajak at kevin@texicon.net. We are looking for someone who has a
great game or who has been around for a long time and is known to the gaming community. I, Kevin, was personally hoping to
get Darwin Bromley of Mayfair fame. Why, you might ask. Because I love train games, and he, from what I understand, is a
fun, warm, and welcoming fellow. What a better guest than one who loves us gamers, right? Right!
So, if anyone knows a board game designer who would like to come to Texicon, please pass the message along.
Thanks, Kevin
