A Day of Piracy at the Calvert Marine Museum – Saturday, September 17th
By Cap’n Tom “Chairborne”
After a successful Glenn, Tyler, and I all wanted to put together another one. Some research and phone calls by Glenn yielded some unexpectedly exciting results. The Calvert Marine Museum was interested in letting us run Demos for the public as well as allowing us to use their space for a one-of-a-kind gaming event. A plan was hatched…
was interested in letting us use their space. Talk like a Pirate Day was just around the corner, and our shenanigans seem right up their alley. We will be running games all day, poking around the museum, and getting to show off the game we love to an entirely new audience.
For gamers with families, this is a great opportunity to participate in an event in a kid-friendly space with plenty to do. For history buffs, it is a chance to mix gaming with a unique experience and venue.
