Haven LARP May 2022 Event

18+ to play. Must be “fully vaccinated” and present vaccination card. Your first event is FREE! Join us in the land of Solaria where you can be the savior of the town of New Haven! Play an armor-clad warrior, the wise sage, crafty rogue, or other fantasy based classes. Players may choose to play a human, dwarf, elf, and many other races that inhabit the world of Solaria. Fight vile beasts, collect clues to unlock mysteries, and use diplomacy to talk your way out of sticky situations. Haven LARP uses the Final Haven Rulebook. This is a medieval fantasy themed Live Action Role Playing (LARP) that takes place over the course of the weekend. Come join us thwarting demons, defending the town, or crafting schemes and looting your fallen foes!

Returning players use promo code ONLINE for $5.00 off the event price! During the LARP weekend, we will be playing from 8:00 pm Friday night until 12:00 pm on Sunday. During this time you will be playing your character – including times you are sleeping and eating. Rustic cabins with electricity are available to players, but they will need to bring their own bed linens. Rustic cabins are not heated so a space heater and/or electric blankets are recommended during the winter months. Food is not provided, but often other players will provide Saturday Breakfast & Dinner for a small fee (usually $10 for the weekend). Refrigerator, microwave, oven and stove are available if you wish to supply and cook your own meals. If you are not familiar with medieval fantasy LARPS, you should wear an appropriate costume (or come as close as you can – even if it’s just a tunic and sweat pants). Weapons must be foam boffer style or latex created or sold for the purposes of LARP. Weapons need to be approved by the staff before they may be used.

Late arrivals and early departures are permitted. We hope you’ll join us, make new friends and have an AWESOME weekend!

NVGO 2 – The Northview Video Game Olympics

NVGO, (Northview Video Game Olympics), is a fundraiser for the Northview Band Boosters. The event will consist of a variety of tournaments for different video games. Participants are allowed to enter up to two different tournaments. Each participant is a cost of $10, meaning Rocket League 2v2 is $20 per team, Overwatch 3v3 is $30 per team, and Fortnite 2v2 is $20 per team.

The event will take place over two days during the evening hours of Thursday April 21 and Friday April 22. Preliminary rounds will take place in the Northview High School Cafeteria on Thursday, and the quarterfinals, semifinals, and finals will take place on Friday in the auditorium, projected on the big screen for the audience to see, (due to technical issues, the 2v2 and 3v3 tournaments may or may not be projected on the big screen). Admission for audience members is free on Thursday. Friday’s main events in the auditorium will be a suggested $3 donation for attendees wanting to watch.

We ask that all participants bring their own controller for games on Switch, (Smash and Mario Kart). A controller will be provided for the Tecmo Super Bowl tournament.

Fortnite, Rocket League, and Overwatch will have a selection of consoles available for use, however, most players will likely want to bring in their own setups for these games. If you plan to enter one of these tournaments, please use this link to help us plan accordingly for scheduling matches: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdsGI50fLFGNiXzCGor3SJWXCWohgGZxw6_yvaSrB4skWEluQ/viewform?usp=sf_link

1st – 3rd place finishers will be honored in a medal ceremony at the end of the event. All participants will receive an official NVGO shirt.
