Bill Kendrick, organizer of last year's Atari Party, is now in the preliminary stages of setting up AP for 2010. Here is part of what he has to say --
"The date & location of this year's event is still To Be Determined, but I'm starting to plan it. (I've already determined that I need 2-3 more displays, just to handle my own game systems. :) )
Please let me know if you fall into one or more of the following categories:
* Want to attend
* Want to volunteer (help set up, break down, etc.)
* Want to bring system(s) and/or game(s) and/or other equipment
* Want to sponsor (donate give-aways, help pay for venue, etc.)
* Aren't interested at all, don't bug you about it"
Bill has set up a mailing lists. If anyone is interested in receiving news about the Atari Party, sign up at

If anyone is interested in helping to put the event together, sign up for the volunteer coordination mailing list at

Held in Davis, California (near Sacramento), last year's Atari Party was successful with about 100 attendees.
