Black Sheep Weekend 2015
by Nate T on November 11, 2015
WoodForSheep is celebrating 5 years of (still) being in existence and we're hosting another one time event. This time over two days (instead of just one)!!! Join us on November 28 & 29 (Saturday & Sunday), from 11AM to 9PM, as we put our own twist to "Black Friday". We promise you'll be board. ;)
The below is what we've planned (so far). And there are rumours that a cake might show up (or perhaps a cake was there, before I showed up and ate it).
Deep Discounts on Select Items
Castle Ravenloft for under $50 - Sure!
Haba games for $5 - Done!
Star Trek Attack Wing Ships for $10 each - Why not!
And yes, all this is after tax. Games for $5, $10, $15, and a few north of $20. Whether its to put under a loved one's tree, or even your own, we're confident you'll find a place for them.
Disclaimer: "In Store Only"

WoodForSheep expansion
by Nate T on September 17, 2015
On behalf of our crew (of two), we are happy to announce the addition of Jay to our meeple-loving gang.
Jay brings many years of beating us at various CCGs, be it Magic or Overpower or Alien Vs Predators or... We even moved game nights to evenings when he has work, for fear of losing to him some more.
Suffice to say, Jay has been assisting us at several of our past events, and we are delighted to bring him on, in an official capacity, to help move forward with WoodForSheep's growth and development. (Wait, why am I still carrying the boxes around?)
* CCG = Collectible Card Games
