Howdy Survivors!
Some of you have been absolutely overwhelmed by current events (super reasonable), while others have been patiently but enthusiastically asking about our plans for virtual events. Frankly, we've been rewriting the playbook behind the scenes, with our wonderful storytellers putting in a lot of time figuring out what our DR:TX online events will look like and how we can make it fun for y'all.
There have been some things that take more time to iron out, such as a fair cost for these events, how to accommodate the one-on-one interactions and staff attention required, what to do about items/resources, and more.
Kyle's post here goes into a bit of the details we have ironed out, and as soon as we have cleared the new legal paperwork, you will see more information about our event(s) specifically.
Our goal is the following:
to hold a virtual event online through discord on April 11th.
to put up sales for tickets by the end of this week.
to not cap attendance or restrict traveler participation.
Additionally, we will have back-buy/XP-buy for all our 3.0 events in our online store starting April 1st, so for those of you who wanted to do that, you will be able to do so!
We do regret to inform you, although it was pretty easy to predict at this point, that the Girl Scouts of Texas have chosen to keep their sites closed through May 19th which means we will not be holding in-person events through the end of our usual season. Trust us when we say that this makes us sad, not at GSCTX, but because we miss you all and we know the hope of a May game was still alive for some of you. We're not sure yet what this means for our usual summer break, but we will make those decisions in the next few weeks.
Thank you, as always, for being an amazingly supportive, creative, and kind community. It’s hard in stressful times not to feel overwhelmed, impatient, or frustrated. We appreciate that this is a place where we can recharge ourselves, and find joy in creating and sharing stories with each other. We will find new and improved ways to do so as we surge forward together.
