Our Volunteers
 
Keith Byers

Eric also enjoys the creative, crafting side of D&D by creating maps, props, terrain, writing original content, and collecting and painting miniatures with a growing collection of over 600 minis.

Our Vision

As a part of our general charter, we are dedicated to donate to children’s charities in the spirit of gaming. 

We are solid believers in listening to what our attendees request and say in regards to events. The sky is the limit!

Throughout any growth, our main vision will always be to provide a place for people to gather and enjoy a time of stress free, no-pressure gaming.
