NerdFest 2025

Nerdfest is an annual boardgaming convention started by The Gamecasters podcast. It’s meant for anyone who loves to play games and have a good time. Our primary focus is to create a space for like minded people to get together and socialize while doing what we all love most, playing boardgames! We will have a number of great vendors in attendance, as well as some local designers, and there are plenty of events for you to partake in and prizes to win! Above all else, Nerdfest is a place to come and share in a game and a laugh while making new friends. We hope to see you there Friday March 28th – Sunday March 30th of 2025!

Nerdfest is above all else a player’s convention. Open gaming is the main draw; however, we will have many events to get involved with if you prefer gaming that way! Otherwise simply bring any game you’d like to play, or check one out in our ever-expanding library, and find a space and some people to play with, and have a blast!!

Royal Stagg Renaissance Faire 2025

We have a dream of a castle in the woods, surrounded by a small village of shops, where magic is felt, memories are made and fairy tales can come true.

Our dream is about making a permanent site for the friends we have met the ‘rennies’ of south west Michigan and beyond. These kind and caring folks, who took us in and accepted us without judgement, have become like family and deserve an escape that we can all share with the public

And that is what all historical re-enactors love about fairs: the escape from daily life, the magic of bringing another time period to life, and sharing it with our community.

This would become a permanent site to hold a renaissance faire, that doesn’t require a 4+ hour drive, and a year’s worth of savings to attend.
