About

The Circle of Swords Gaming Guild is one of the largest tabletop gaming clubs in the region, with over 300 active members each year and several thousand gamers involved over the years. We have managed and administrated several one day and multi-day gaming conventions of our own, and assisted other clubs across the tri-state area with their conventions.

COS is run by a board of directors to oversee the conventions and other club business. 
This five member panel meets bi-monthly and consists of positions for
Guildmaster, Assistant Guildmaster, Treasurer, Scribe, and Assistant Scribe / Treasurer.

COS is extremely grateful for our membership and their support of our charitable efforts. Over the years, you all have helped contribute to local community organizations, as well as assisted club members in times of need.

By participating in charity drives at COS conventions like COSCON and SIBCON, you help local organizations make a difference while having a great time with friends and other gamers. Additionally, you’ve helped support fellow members in times of need, and also raised supplies and gaming items for troops deployed overseas!

Thank you for your contributions over the years! Here is just part of the great work you’ve helped bring about over the past 35 years (1988-2023)!
