"Gnome Gnews is Good Gnews!" 
Greetings!
 
May brings us warm weather, baseball and a month filled with great games!  It all started off with a new Magic the Gathering set called Shadowmoor, continues with new releases for Pokemon, Naruto, UFS L5R and a bunch of great board and card games.  You can download our current event calendar here
 
We have a big charity event set for May 17th.  All of the proceeds from this event will go to benefit the Green Bay Boys and Girls Club.  Many of our favorite manufacturers have helped with the prizes for this event and it promises to be a day filled with fun for everyone.
 
May also brings graduations, Mothers Day, and Memorial Day, all great occasions to pick up a new game or share an old favorite with friends and families. 
 
So we expect to be very busy this month getting you your favorite games.  If we miss one please let us know - sometimes the good ones sneak by us, and we do appreciate it when we get you the games you love to play!Gnome Games - Green Bay, WI (920) 499-4263

Try a Great Game for the Graduation Party 
 
Curses!  One of the best party games ever!Looking for the perfect game for your graduation party?  We'd like to reccomend Curses!
 
Curses! is great for groups of creative people willing to laugh at the misfortunes of others...and at themselves! Everyone plays all the time as they watch for players to "forget" their accumulating curses or as they have to react themselves. Try giving a Miss America acceptance speech in a pirate voice while another player barks each time you speak. Clever, timely, witty...fun, fun, fun!
Summer is just around the corner - and we've got a lot of gaming goodness planned for you including Summer Camps for Magic, Yu Gi Oh and Pokemon, and Escalation leagues for Warhammer and Warhammer 40K. 
 
June promises to be  the biggest RPG month of the year - Dungeons and Dragons 4th Edition and World Wide Dungeons and Dragons Day June 6-7 and Free RPG Day on International Gnome Day - June 21st!Gnome Games - Green Bay, WI (920) 499-4263 
 
See you at the Gnome!
