About this Event
Explorers Creativity Club is proud to announce that the Spring semester of 2022 Live Action Role Playing Club is in full swing!
Our first class this semester will be a boffer sword making class. It's our time-tested edition started by our coach Nate and modified by our Man-at-Arms Sam!
This sword is light and weighted. It's a more advanced style than our standard boffer swords. Kids (and adults) will love the feel of this sword! But we're also going to make these as simple as possible so we have to play!
After we make the swords of course we will venture out to our big front lawn where our Coach Nate will explain basic sword fighting techniques and Sam will assist. We will have fun outdoor games and each guest will be able to choose a Non Player Character (NPC) to act out.
Other activities:
* Bible devotional with the theme of Joy.
* Advanced Narrative Roleplay. This is the Christian alternative to D&D that Nate invented. It's super fun and this year we are on a mission to find the Lost Lanterns of Lanofeh to save the people from monsters who are coming out of rifts in the earth that appeared after a strange mist enveloped the land of Lanofeh.
* If there is time we will have acting games and acting skits.
* Also, if parents want to find out more about membership, Mrs Beasley, our director, will meet with parents inside for an Open House and answer any questions.
* Snack and social time.
We have successfully run our LARPing program for three and a half years and this is going to be a great semester!
Here are some other things to keep in mind:
* For the homeschooler or online schooler.
* Can be a drop off situation if desired.
* Perfect for "differently abled" or special needs kids.
* Opportunity to truly make new friends.
* Wear costumes if desired.
* Bring a snack to share.
* Bring your own water bottle.
* If you don't want to make a sword but just observe, you can obtain a free ticket. Come to the parent meeting so you can ask any questions you might have.
We do have a friendly mini-Aussie dog and a very shy cat who are our mascots!

This year we will be focusing on Renaissance History with our exciting storyline of finding the Lost Lanterns of Lanofeh!
