It's Fin-a-ly May... You know what I mean.
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENTS!
--> CHANGES COMING TO KID's D&D Night
The final details for Kids RPG Night are underway. I will be emailing the parents directly so if you are a Kid's D&D Night parent, please fill out this form (if you haven't already). I'm hoping to get it all locked in by Wednesday. This week should be the beta for the new procedure. I'm sure there will be kinks to work out and I will value your feedback.
--> VOLUNTEER GMs NEEDED:
