Contents Contents 1 Contents 1 is an association of boardgame enthusiasts incorporated as a non-profit company BPA in the state of South Carolina for the express purpose of hosting the annual gaming conference known as the World Boardgaming Championships, or WBC for short. It offers tourna- ments, vendors, an auction, demonstrations, seminars, open gaming, and Juniors programs. In addition, for those who can’t get enough, we offer Play-by-Email-Tournaments. We love boardgam- ing competition—from wargames and Eurogames to racing, sports, and rail games, and we make no apologies for it. It’s what we do. And we’ve done it better than anybody else by default for decades. This yearbook documents BPA events of the previous year. Aside from the back cover, it does not contain scheduling information for the upcoming convention. Schedules and event previews will appear in a separate program and online at boardgamers.org. In fact, on our website, you’ll find more pre- and post-event information than any place on the net—over 1,000 pages of it. It’s not very lucra- tive or cost effective, but we think it demonstrates our commitment to this hobby. To help support BPA, take a moment to subscribe to our FREE e-mail newsletter via the web- site and continue to spread the good news about our association and its activities.
