Hello Magic Players, this event is to remember Cameron Thompson, one of our friends and fellow magic players who passed away in March of 2023 due to cirrhosis. We are hosting this event as a celebration of life as his birthday is coming up on November 16th. Our goal is to honor someone who put their heart and soul on growing the community and bringing his passion for the game through his favorite format and working alongside the place he worked at to make this a yearly occasion.
He will be missed dearly, and we were unaware of the struggles he was going through, but we are doing this to bring awareness of the problems of depression and alcoholism. This is a charitable event, and we will also be using this opportunity to raise funds for Alcoholics Anonymous.
There will be a link provided it description for Alcoholics Anonymous contributions.
We hope to see y'all come out and support this cause and if you ever need help, don't hesitate to reach out to us or your local game store!
