Gameathon 2009

Hello WKU students and gamers!

My name is David Gray and I am the Event Manager for Gameathon `09. I will be working hard from now until April 4th to make sure that Gameathon `09 is the best yet! Last year’s Gameathon was a huge success thanks to Adam Faragalli and his team and I am fortunate enough to have him along as a resource for this year’s event. I know that with his help and support from our sponsors and the AD/PR department at Western Kentucky University this year can be an even bigger success.

Once again Gameathon is coming at you free of charge thanks to our wonderful sponsors. Revolution 91.7 has agreed to sponsor the event this year and once again Gamestop will be helping us out. We hope to be working with RAC again this year after they helped us out so much last year.

We are still in the early stages of planning this year’s event so check back frequently for updates. The next update will include a final list of this year’s competition games. Since we are still in the early stage of planning that gives you, the gamer, a chance to influence this year’s Gameathon. To make this year’s Gameathon the best to date we want to hear the gamers’ opinion. To make any suggestions on how we can improve this year’s event please communicate with us on our WordPress blog or by becoming a fan of Gameathon on Facebook.

As always we will need help in a variety of ways to make Gameathon happen. If you are a student this is a great way to get involved on campus and beef up the resume. We will also need referees to maintain order in the competition rooms. Being a referee is a paid position so those selected will not be able to compete. If you are interested in helping out or being a referee please contact me (david.gray@wku.edu) or Cliff (cliff.shaluta@wku.edu) as soon as possible.

Please help in any way possible and join in the discussion on WordPress or Facebook. I look forward to hearing from you!

David Gray
