My Project

Two years ago, the Dungeons & Dragons club began as a fun and creative outlet for our students. We started with a core group of 10 die-hard adventurers, and I ran the sessions myself as Dungeon Master. In its second year, we grew to 14 members, and a student bravely took on the role of a second Dungeon Master, and we ran two groups simultaneously. We struggled somewhat with supplies and resources, but managed to share what we had.

This year, our club has expanded to 21+ members, and we find ourselves in need of more resources to run our adventures.

More students have stepped up to run the club, but we sorely lack manuals, dice, battlemaps, and so on.

The students in this club are enthusiastic and eager to participate. The comradery that has been created amongst a diverse group of students is heartwarming to behold. The club fosters creative thinking, innovative problem solving, and social-emotional well-being. Please help us keep this ever-expanding group going so that they can continue to slay their dragons.
