If you missed out on Strive Street, you missed out on one of the best esports events Vermont has ever seen. We can't show enough gratitude for all the players and spectators that showed up and made this event the wild success it was. We'll see you again in May 2025. Count on it.

Our Smash Bros. Bootcamp is taking place from August 19-23, from 12pm to 5pm, every day that week! Got kids looking to play in the upcoming Smash Crash tournament? Got teenagers convinced they're the best Smash player on their block? ๐ง๐๐๐ฆ ๐๐ฆ ๐ง๐๐ ๐ช๐๐๐ ๐๐ข๐ฅ ๐ง๐๐๐ .
Join other kids and teens ages 9-17 (4th-12th grade) and spend some time getting focused, targeted and individualized training to help sharpen the finer details of your playstyle. This week's program is a dedicated bootcamp environment designed to get kids ready for ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐น ๐๐ผ๐๐ฟ๐ป๐ฎ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐-๐น๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐น ๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐๐ถ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป, so students should be prepared to do some real work against peers that *will* be playing to win!
Students are encouraged to bring their own Nintendo Switch systems, dock, power adapter and favorite controllers, along with a copy of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. There will be stations and controllers available, but in limited supply. They're also encouraged to eat beforehand, and also to bring a resealable water bottle plus a snack or two, as the brain needs fuel for making good decisions, particularly at high speeds over long stretches of time.
If this sounds like something your kid would be excited for, ๐ฑ๐ผ๐ป'๐ ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐น๐ฎ๐ in calling, texting, or sending us an email. This is the last blast before the school year begins. Slots are limited to a total of 20, and they will be filling up ๐ณ๐ฎ๐๐.

Scheduling changes afoot!
Due to a myriad of changing conditions, we will unfortunately no longer be hosting Open Gym Fridays for the remainder of the 2023-2024 school year.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause!

We have some brand new gear. Well, old gear. Brand new old gear. Whatever, you get it.
We now have a modified CRT monitor running straight RGB connection via SCART. This means that older games can run on native hardware into a true lagless display, and if you know anything about arcade-based fighting games, thereโs truly no substitute for playing them this way.
