Address: 1405 IN-46 W, Nashville, IN 47448
Date and Time: Oct 4th @ 4:00pm- Oct 6th @ 6:00pm
Come join us for an incredible weekend of Games and Fun for the whole family! A time to Reconnect and Refresh! Three Nail Games Family Convention Gathering will be a different format this year. Instead of a large gaming hall we will just be all gathering at the Abe Martin Lodge and playing games in the many lobbies as families and groups! This will help make the convention more affordable as it will not require a convention ticket!
There will be no official schedule! The only official thing is that there will be an amazing group of people at the lodge that share a love of gaming, family, and fellowship! If you would like to schedule games or tournaments with other attendees, check out the Facebook event where you can communicate that!
We will not be bringing the entire gaming library this year but will bring what we have room for! If there is a game from last year that you definitely want to see there again please mention it on the Facebook Event page comments!

So we thought about trimming the video but figured you might enjoy seeing a little more of our personalities and who you would be choosing to spend the weekend with!
