Hark, Gamers of Extraordinary Skill!
Check out the Tabletop.Events landing page for the ninth annual D8 Summit Charity Convention, a regional gaming convention benefiting quality local charities as well as educational initiatives inside the gaming community. As a fundraising event ran by D8 Summit Charities Inc., a 501c3 charity registered in the United States, all donations made at the event are tax deductible to the maximum extent allowed by law.
Beautiful New Home, Same Great Con
Join us for our 2025 show, once again housed in the historic Post House Ballroom in Dixon, Illinois! This beautiful building offers all the classiness and amenities you have come to expect from our charity event, but with a few additional perks. These include a bar on-site, with an allowance for outside food and (non-alcoholic) drink. Several quality and affordable eateries and entertainment venues are within a short walk of the convention hall, and they are ready to serve you.
We will also have events at fun alternate sites around town, including in the Paper Escape, the Northwest Territory Historical Museum, as well as in the home of D8 Summit Charities itself!
Policy of Acceptance – No discrimination. No harassment. Period.
At the D8 Summit, we believe that around a gaming table, all people are equal. As a result, we openly support all people to join us and share in the laughter and fun.
The D8 Summit Charity Convention and its volunteers will not discriminate against anybody on the basis of any real or perceived minority status. These include but aren’t limited to: gender (and gender identity), age, race, ethnicity, religion, veteran status, physical ability, sexual orientation, body shape, and neurodivergence.
In line with this policy, the D8 Summit Charity Convention will not tolerate harassment of any kind for any reason by anybody (volunteer or attendee). This includes physical, verbal, and sexual harassment, as well as stalking.
How We Act Upon This Policy
The D8 Summit takes great steps to be supportive of all players, and this means we will act when presented allegations. We have never asked anybody to leave our events, but we will. If asked to leave by the convention, affected parties will not be issued a refund.
How to Report Potential Misconduct
If an attendee witnesses anybody violating this policy, please let a Volunteer Board Member know right away. Board Members can be easily identified by their badge which clearly calls their position, on a silver stripe at the bottom of the badge. Board Members are often found at the registration and administration tables, as well as wandering around the event.
