Seven More Days until the Weekend of Games
Important message from The GodMom:
I just got an advanced look at the Program Book for this year’s Weekend (one of the perks of being Staff). I am amazed at the variety of games and the number of different game runners.
There really is something for everyone. We’ve got games for kids (run by kids, too!). Omaha’s own Marcus Ross will be sharing his thoughts on game design. We’ve got silly card games and very serious strategic board games. There’s a Live Action Role-Playing event — and there’s my live-action Morning Walk for those of you who’d like a little exercise before settling into a chair for some serious fun. You can preview the whole schedule and claim a seat for the games you want at Schedule for Nuke-Con 2023.
Seven More Days until the Weekend of Games. I’ll see you next week — and don’t forget to bring a friend!

Staffer Steve Note: Many of the items Jana makes can be made to order, so if you see something you like… perhaps it can be made to order in time for Nuke-Con!

Board of Directors: Call for Nominations
Did you know that when you attended Nuke-Con 2022, you became a member for the full year until the next convention begins?
As a member of Nuke-Con, do you want to help guide the direction of the convention?
The Board of Directors, comprised of five people who are appointed directly and two more who are elected by fellow Nuke-Con members, has responsibility for the general oversight and financial well-being of the organization. The Board of Directors also helps to ensure effective and efficient management of the organization’s operations. In other words, the Board of Directors guides what Nuke-Con does.
The Board is currently preparing for the election of one Director by the general membership.
If you are interested in running for one of those two positions, visit our nominations page for details.
