Thank you!

First, we’d like to thank everyone that attended the event, volunteers and visitors alike! Because of massive flooding after a break in the libraries water main, we almost had to cancel the event altogether, which would have been tragic. However, thanks to the hard work and dedication from our amazing volunteers and student organizations, Fletcher Libraries first annual International Games Day was still on and was a success! Everything was awesome, but mostly, everything was cool because we’re part of a team! A total of 424 people visited us throughout the day, making this one of our biggest and successful events in recent years! Check out our Gallery to see pictures from the event, and mark us down on your calendar for next year when the event will be bigger and better than ever!

Last but not least, we’d like to give a very special thanks to all the volunteers who helped make the event a success: ASUW Cosclub, Jesse James Comics, AZ MIB, Konami Gaming, Imperial Outpost Games, The Gaming Zone, and more.
