The Dalles Civic Auditorium is hosting WagonCon, a gaming convention that brings together enthusiasts from around the Columbia Gorge region. The event runs from Friday through Sunday, providing a diverse array of gaming activities and vendor opportunities.

Games abound in this week’s round-up of local social events, music offerings and local shows. Scrabble, pool and poker options sit along side productions such as Dancing with the Gorge Stars at The Dalles High School Auditorium or “Ripchord” at the Bingen Theater.
