VAMPIRE: ELDER KINDRED NETWORK® ANNOUNCES LOCATION FOR 2011 EUROPEAN
CHAMPIONSHIP
European National Coordinators Select Poland as Host Country for
Vampire: The Eternal Struggle European Championship
WARSAW, POLAND - December 7th, 2010 – In a close vote, European
National Coordinators have selected Poland to host the 2011 European
Championship. Scheduled for November 11-13, 2011, the Polish event
team will be hosting the affair at the Gromada Airport Hotel in
Warsaw. Radoslaw "Szewski" Staszewski, Poland's National
Coordinator, expects the event to draw 150 players who will compete in
multiple tournaments as well as attend a welcoming party and
experience Warsaw's sightseeing.
Poland's successful bid for the 2011 European Championship comes on
the heels of a highly successful 2010 event in Paris, France. The
2011 event also has a special significance in that it is the first
European Championship to be selected by the V:EKN after CCP's
announcement that it will cease publication of the game. Vampire:
Elder Kindred Network's selection and support of the 2011 event shows
the organization's commitment to providing ongoing support for
organized play in CCP's absence.
The Polish EC Team expects to launch a website with details for the
event by the end of the first quarter of 2011.
