Pandemonium Pot Luck Fundraiser (Event Over)
- When:Sat 3/29/08 (7PM)
- Where: Pandemonium Books & Games
- Address: 4 Pleasant Street Downstairs Cambridge, MA Map
- Cost: 10.00
We're trying to start the ball rolling to help Pandemonium Books
& Games to raise funds and develop plans to pay the State
Department of Revenue and consolidate it's debt. Pandy, in case
you've never been there, is at 4 Pleasant Street in Cambridge's
Central Square (behind the 7-11 on Mass Ave and
across the street from Post Office).
There will be a Pot Luck Fund Raiser at the store on Saturday Night
(the 29th - this week) from 7-11 pm. Folks who want to come and
help out should bring a
shareable food item and be willing to donate $10 into the
Pandemonium Preservation Fund.
It will be a general meet n greet for folks, with board and card
gaming, and discussing of plans for future fund raising efforts and
other events at the store.
Our main desire is to make sure that Pandemonium doesn't end up in
the situation that Toscanini's did earlier this year. Tyler has
some ideas to avoid
this, through the help of the local fandom community that he has
been serving for the past 18 years.
The market for small independent retailers, especially book and
game stores, is not an easy one at this time. Quantum Books is
shutting the Doors, Mcintyre
& Moore are having to move to another location for the second
time in recent memory, many others (like Games Workshop) are gone,
or depend upon
Harvard University giving them reduced rents to stay in business.
Pandemonium doesn't have a University or a Corporation to help them
when times are tough. All it has is you the fans and customers to
help keep it going.
So, please come, share food, chat, play games, shop, and join us in
showing our appreciation of Pandemonium and hope for it's continued
future for years to come. We can make a difference with a little
combined effort. There will be a variety of foods and drink to
enjoy for your effort.
