It’s a record! Yaaaaay! <o:p> </o:p>My predecessor Ryan sent me a message telling me not to make it look too easy (it’s not), or some folks might start to get jealous. Lol. <o:p> </o:p>That being said, I have a ton of special events and need help marketing the hell out of them. We have karaoke, a ball, a pro-wrestling party LARP, and LARPs running in the fantasy worlds of The Dresden Files (Butcher) and The Kingkiller Chronicles (Rothfuss), to name just a few. On that score: if you can help me promote in any way or have ideas, please email me back and let me know.<o:p> </o:p>Since we have some great, low-bar-to-entry games and lots of special events, I also wanted to encourage staff and department heads to consider participating in a LARP or two, even if you just drop by for a bit. That goes especially for those who haven’t LARPed before. I know everyone’s busy, but we promise to show you an awesome time—even if you only have a moment to cheer on a wrestler, have a dance, or sing a song. 😊<o:p> </o:p>Best,<o:p> </o:p>Tara (and all of us here in LARPs)<o:p> </o:p></div></body></html>
