Additional thanks to Rachel Collier, librarian at the Sunnyvale Library for inviting us to run an Atari Party and helping coordinate, and to Judith Haemmerle, executive director at the Digital Game Museum for helping coordinate and run the show!

Note: Please keep in mind that this is a free event, hosted by a public library. It is not a typical retro-gaming show, and space is not being provided for selling items.
