KevCon Games Convention!
When: Friday, Saturday & Sunday August 11-13th, 2006 Three Days of Gaming! Take that GenCon! We will start at noon on Friday, August 11th and continue until Sunday night. There is an international party and dinner on Saturday night if you`d like to come. Email me if interested: greatpowers@yahoo.com Where is KevCon: Kevin`s English School, Tsukahara Station,(Daiyuzan Line) Minami Ashigara City, Kanagawa. It`s not your typical school in Japan. It looks like a cottage with wooden floors and tables. It is pretty nice! Address: 2659-4 Tsukahara, Minami Ashigara City, Kanagawa Come for one or all days. Bring a sleeping back and sleep over or reserve one of the beds available in this Kari River side cottage-like house. Views of Mount Fuji and surrounding rice fields can be had. Come anytime! Bring your favourite games or play what other people have brought. Also Kevin has an extensive collection of wargames and boardgames in the club house or you can even check out the games in Kevin`s War Store downstairs! http://www.KevinsWarStore.com How to Get There from: Tokyo, Fujisawa, Atsugi, Machida or Yokohama: Take the Odakyu Line to Odawara and be sure to get into one of the first four train cars as the train splits. Take a Kyuko (express train) it has red kanji on the side usually next to the door up top. It takes about 90 minutes. Get off at Odawara Station and transfer to the Daiyuzan Line. Get off at Iiwahara Station, it takes about 11 minutes from Odawara. Take the only exit, cross the train tracks and take your first left. Walk straight until you see a white house across the street from the Fuji Supermarket. There will be a sign saying Merry Lue and Kevin`s English School. How to Get There: From Shizuoka, Nagoya and other points South: Take the Tokaido line or the Shinkansen and get off at Odawara. Transfer to the Daiyuzan line and follow the directions above (for Tokyo). **The Shinkansen also stops at Odawara. You take a Kodama Super Express. It takes about 40 minutes from Tokyo. Costs a little over 3,000 Yen one way. Right next door is a restaurant. Across the street is the supermarket. Downstairs is Kevin`s War Store and Merry Lue`s General Store if you want some Doritos etc. We have an oven, gas table stove, large fridge and microwave. Bath and shower, plus a load of games and game related books you can read. Plus you can buy some games from Kevin`s War Store which is located inside the cottage and downstairs on the first floor. Take a break from the city and see some mountain views and breathe some fresh air. Email me if you`d like to come: greatpowers@yahoo.com Feel free to pass this on to interested people. Games of all kinds welcome. Bring whatever you would like to play, chances are, others will want to play it too. I may run a game myself or see what people want to run. I will keep posting updates of what games will be run at our various JIGG Clubs. At one KevCon we had over twenty people and JIGG was actually featured in The Mainichi Daily News. It was great to see JIGG in the Tokyo media! Last KevCon was one of the best! It was great to meet so many of you! What facilities do we have for playing games? We have three large tables and two large rooms to play in. We also have a large boardgame and wargame library to choose from. Clean up: Please wash your own dishes or put them in the dishwasher. Rinse out your cans or bottles. Some can be deposited across the street in the recyle bin next to the drink machine (across the street next to the supermarket). Please ensure to separate recycle ables into cans, pet bottles etc. This will help me to clean up faster. Email Kevin at: greatpowers@yahoo.com To tell me you are coming and I will Email you my phone number should you need it.
