Gary Gygax Memorial Bench Dedication

  • Elm Park 1224 W Main St Lake Geneva, WI, 53147 United States (map)

The Gygax Memorial Fund cordially invites you to the dedication ceremony of a new park bench dedicated in memory of E. Gary Gygax Co-creator of Dungeons & Dragons and NY Times Best Selling Author.

The ceremony will be held on Gary Gygax's birthday, Thursday, July 27th, at 2 pm.

Invitees include Gygax family members, friends, former TSR employees, The City of Lake Geneva Mayor and other officials, press, fans, and the general public

The park bench dedication site is located in the City of Lake Geneva at the far west end of Elm Park (aka, Library Park) right near The Shore Path.

The bench is located in the spot where Gary once sat, dreaming of one day living in Stone Manor and writing fantasy novels of his own. Gary realized this dream in the mid-1980s, living in the actual mansion and writing the fantasy books that would make him a NY Times Best Selling Author several times over.
