Any photos?
Toying with the idea of a trip to Canada next year, and it would be a massive coincidence if there happened to be a wargames show on while I was there... lol

Here's a photo-heavy blog post from the chief organizer from last year, he will probably have a 2024 version with lots of photos up shortly. The Hotlead and Friends of Hotlead Facebook groups also have a fair bit up from last weekend.

Friends of Hotlead
The Bring & Buy was particularly busy this year. Approximately $23000 worth of goods sold with 10% going to worthy charities:
$600 to the Red Cross for Ukraine humanitarian relief
$1200 to the Red Cross for their general "Where it is needed most" fund (because Honda is doing a 3x matching program)
$300 to Canadian Walk for Veterans
$300 to 19 Stratford Air Cadets (Ontario)
Akula, it would be wonderful to see you next year. Dates are 21-23 March 2025. Accommodation is available at the venue but book early.
