RPG Event Updates!

--> KIDS RPG NIGHT

How it normally works: I email the parents directly, hopefully on the Monday before Kid's RPG Night with the link for sign-ups and session descriptions. So if you are a Kid's RPG Night parent, please fill out this form. (if you haven't already)


Please remember Kid's RPG Night takes place the 2nd and 4th Fridays, GMs permitting.



--> Discord Looking For Party

Join our Discord and find your next gaming group.

It looks like there is some interest in D&D, Daggerheart, Crooked Moon, and a few other sessions being discussed in the Discord.


Tip: When you join, go to Rules to get verified. Then, VERY IMPORTANTLY: go to Roles-and-Info to select your interests. This is what will unlock the channels.
