Super Grands
World Games XXVIII
December 26-31, 2017


We understand that some people have vocalized dislike for Buffalo, New York as the location for the Super Grands, but for the sake of everyone's cost factors, the near impossiblity to find a brand new location each year and not to mention that after 35 years we are in the process of moving our headquarter offices, we had to make the decision to have it at a location that we could feasibly produce it. Thus we have decided to have it at the Adam's Mark Hotel in Buffalo, New York once again so that everyone can make plans as soon as possible.

Buffalo Advantages
2. Least expensive SG hotel rooms with indoor heated pool
3. Most function space
4. Free airport shuffle
5. Niagara Falls only 1/2 hour away

 


ADAM'S MARK HOTEL
The up-scale Adam’s Mark Hotel features one of the nicest competition arenas that the Super Grands has ever secured, yet we’ve managed to retain a reasonable guest room rate ($139). Located on the Lake Erie Waterfront at the mouth of the Niagara River in the heart of downtown Buffalo, the hotel is a short 20 minute drive from Niagara Falls and Canada. Niagara Falls highlights include special holiday “Festival of Lights” at the falls with colorful illumination, the gaming casinos and attractions on Clifton Hill with Planet Hollywood, Ripley’s Believe it or Not, the Hershey Store, etc. Don’t forget your passport if you want to enter into Canada for all Niagara Falls attractions. 

 
The Adam's Mark wants us back

The Adam's Mark has agreed to shuttle hotel guests to and from the airport this year, first come, first serve for free and get this... as available, upon request, they will shuttle registered Hotel guests to choices:
1. Niagara Falls
2. Seneca Niagara Casino
3. Galleria Mall
4. Buffalo Science Museum
5. Albright Knox Arts Gallery
6. Pierce Arrow Automobile Museum
7. Buffalo Science Museum
8. Frank Lloyd Wright's Darwin Martin House
9. Chippewa Street or your favorite restaurant within 2 miles of the city
SPECIAL - The Adam's Mark will also be offering a Pizza/Wings bar all you can eat for $10 each evening before and after each Finale.

The dates will be the same as last year, December 26-31 and the schedule of events will be very similar to last years (see 2016 info)
