Y-CON Sends our Thoughts and Support to all Affected by the Nova Scotia Wildfires

Y-CON sends our thoughts and support to everyone affected by the Nova Scotia wildfires. We will be making a $250 donation to Red Cross fire-relief efforts and have a donation jar available at the registration desk this weekend for additional donations. ❤️

Y-CON is built on the motto of community through play. We are a safe environment to come to this weekend and have some fun and positivity. If you are displaced by fires and able to attend, we are open with welcoming arms.

Should you not be able to attend anymore, we completely understand - don't hesitate to reach out with any questions at all. We are constantly monitoring this situation for any changes at all.

Announcing the very first Yarmouth County Cup!

The races are almost set to begin - We have a very special event to announce for Y-CON 2023!

Local dignitaries from across Yarmouth County have accepted the challenge of competing for the first ever Yarmouth County Cup - Friday, June 2nd at 6:30 pm on Mario Kart 8 Deluxe as a welcome to Y-CON Event!

Come on out and cheer them on! Who's your pick to take home the glory?!🎮🏎

Calling all DM’s & Game Runners!

Calling all DM's and Game Masters - if you're attending Y-Con this year and you’d like to run a TTRPG session, maybe a one shot or mini adventure let us know! 😃 It can be any system you like and want to introduce to the community. We want to help you run it and bring your Dungeon Master Skills to the table.
In addition we are putting the names of all those that host a Role Playing session into a draw for a really cool prize.
Please let us know by emailing our gaming coordinator Matthew Hiltz hiltzmatthew0@gmail.com or filling our our gaming table reservation form. 🎲

Raffle Auction Donations are now being accepted!

We're excited to share that this year our Y-CON raffle auction proceeds will be going to the Meadowfields Community School playground project with non-perishable goods also being accepted for the Yarmouth Food Bank!
Meadowfields Community School is fundraising for a brand new playground - with their current one in dire need of replacement. The school and community are currently not permitted to use it due to safety guidelines. Individual schools are responsible for funding their own improvement projects.
We will also be supporting the Yarmouth Food Bank by accepting donations of non-perishable goods at the registration desk. Not only will you be helping out those in need, we will also give you a free ticket to enter in the raffle auction - up to 10 tickets, more items generously accepted!
The raffle auction is an annual part of YCON where attendees have the opportunity to buy raffle tickets on all sorts of incredible donated items. Interested in donating item(s) and learning more? Fill out our form today.
