NWRL & WPC Spring 2014 LAN Party

 

We'll be holding the LAN Party on May, 17th 2014 from 2pm to 10pm at the Sallal Grange in North Bend, Washington - directions


Event Overview

We have partnered with students in the Mount Si High School Wildcat Production Club to jointly host this party! Student volunteers are helping to coordinate the LAN Party and all proceeds from the event ticket sales will benefit their program!
In a nutshell, we are having a large computer gaming party with social interaction, fun games, contests, and lots of prizes. This LAN Party is open to all games but will feature contests for a few specific games. There will be concessions and tables available outside of the game room.

How do I register for the BYOC (Bring Your Own Computer) Party?

  1. Online registration $15*: Choose “REGISTER” from the menu on the left.

*Your registration (and seat reservation) for the NWRL & WPC LAN is confirmed only when payment is received.
