I saw this when I came back from lunch, its unfortunate I had just started getting prize support for some events.

TheWarStore Weekend Postponed…
I am very sorry to relate that I have decided to postpone TheWarStore Weekend for 2011.

The past 2 years have been personally difficult for my wife and myself as both of my parents have grown increasingly ill. This year has seen serious downgrades in their condition. With so many important decisions and responsibilities piling up, the date for the con has basically just snuck up on me. Rather than making a half effort and not having a good con, we have decided to postpone TheWarStoreWeekend until October 2012.

I want to personally apologize to all of you who have looked forward to TheWarStore Weekend, and to those who have expended so much effort on its behalf. Of course all tickets will be immediately refunded.

I hope you can understand my reasons for postponing TheWarStore Weekend, and that you will consider joining us next year.

Thank you
Neal and Dorothy

Best wishes to Neal and his wife but family understandably takes priority over hobby (and business in his case).

It's definitely understandable. I've got to cancel my hotel reservation tonight...

+1, best of luck. TWS is one of my favorite online shops, hope all works out well.

Same here, looks like I have too cancel as well. Thanks for posting this as honestly I would have never seen it otherwise.

I am very sorry to hear about this...I was very much looking forward to going this year, after hearing all the good things about last year's event. Still, I applaud Neal and Dorthy for putting family first, and not being willing to put on a lackluster con.

Hang in there Neal, you're a top chap.
