This year’s March for Babies was another big event. Thanks to everyone who stopped by and said hello! Also thanks to all of the March of Dimes volunteers who helped out.

And thanks to Amy Grey of Radio 104.1 WMRQ, who stopped by to challenge us to a Mario Kart race!

A Blast From The Past…

The first video game system I bought was the amazing (at the time) Atari 5200. I just found one of the control pad overlays for the game STAR RAIDERS. Anyone else remember this?

Here is what the controllers looked like…

These controllers had tiny “fire” buttons that wore out quickly. Kind of a bummer because afterwards the only game I could play that didn’t use the fire buttons was Pac Man.

Still, the system will always hold a place in my gamers heart.

March of Dimes Walk for Babies

admin — Tue, 03 May 2011 18:35:15 +0000

It was two beautiful days on Saturday and Sunday of last week as we helped support the March of Dimes Walk for Babies.

Special thanks to Marc Spencer and Deb Poudrier of March of Dimes for all their help and everyone who stopped by to say hello and do a little gaming!

We entertained some pretty big gamers!

Thanks again, everyone!
