Nerd Louisville was lucky enough to be invited to DeSales High School for a day of nerdy-ness! Chris ran a group through Shadowdark and Tom introduced his group to Fabula Ultima!

There was also a room for Warhammer and plenty of space for students to celebrate their favorite nerdy hobbies!

We personally would love to see more young people rolling dice and collaborating at the table together! This was an outstanding experience for us and look forward to more opportunities to bring up the next generation of role playing gamers!

Thanks again to everyone at DeSales for hosting us!
