We’re all a team!
Special mention should go to our support staff that makes the Crawl happen:

Late news, but an anonymous Monster Donation of $300 has pushed us over the top to $1,800 total for The Jerry Stefek Memorial Crawl for the Cure 2022! It won’t go through with the $1,500 check to ACS, but we are honored and ecstatic to take it under our campaign umbrella to emphasize the impact of the Crawl’s efforts at Gamehole Con IX 2022! Thank you, donor, for your extremely generous donation! We are stunned by this incredible support, and stand in awe of the difference you have made for victims of this terrible disease! Thank you!

Thank you for your patience, and we’ll get the prizes moving in the very near future.

And SO The Jerry Stefek Crawl for the Cure Gamehole IX 2022 has concluded, and I dare say ALL were victorious! Our tremendous sponsors, Judges and players came together and enabled us to raise $1,478, and we can’t resist pushing that to an even $1,500 – all wrapped up and ready to go to the American Cancer Society!
I cannot say how many times I heard comments about how much fun people were having while performing the Mighty Deeds generating treasure for those in need through the American Cancer Society! Reavers fought the Un-dead of The Shambling Un-Dead 0-level funnel tournament 2016 with new spins and thrills, and battled bravely to the end!
Co-Champions Aaron Koelman and Brian Martin had characters that survived the longest with 11 survival stamps, but the sponsors were so generous, we had loot galore for all that participated! THANK YOU, all for your support!
Gamehole Con for working with us even in hectic times to make this event take flight!
