Mark Smale from Ravensburger
Granite Game Summit has the best community, that includes some amazing sponsors. One sponsor that has roots dropped in New Hampshire is Ravensburger (They have an office based in Portsmouth, NH). Even though Ravensburger is a large company in our industry, they really care about our community. They have been supporting Granite Game Summit for a number of years and this year is no exception. Helping make our comeback the best it can be!
