It is tentatively scheduled for March 6-7, 2010 in Lake Geneva, WI.

This is not carved in stone- but should be close. Luke will have more info once the location is secured for the event.

You want to speak to Luke (a.k.a Melf on the Forums). He is spearheading the GCII gathering. I'm sure anything you could do to help out would be appreciative.

This thread seems as good a place as any to ask this question--what is the largest convention/meeting hall in Lake Geneva? The turnout for this year was pretty good to my mind, and I think it'll only get bigger as word gets around and the fan base grows. While I don't think the Con will have to move to UW-Parkside anytime soon, I do think the organizers need to consider the possibility of a larger venue for next year and subsequent years.

Don't get me wrong--there was nothing wrong with the American Legion Hall. It was cool to play ther and imagine what it must have been like to have been there in the glory days of TSR and the beginning of RPGs. But I also want to see this con thrive and prosper, and in order to do that it needs to be able to grow to accommodate all those who want to attend.

My thanks to the organizers for putting on GaryCon I. I look forward to GaryCon II. 8-)

We are looking at larger venues for Gary Con II. The Legion Hall was fun and nostalgic, but we want to expand next year to accomodate more people, provide a quieter gaming environment and maybe have a small dealer area.

Stay tuned and I'll post up info as it develops. Thanks for coming to Gary Con I btw!
