Announcing the Girls* TTRPG Club!
We are thrilled to announce a new opportunity for girls* and non-binary campers to gather online for an epic Tabletop Role-Playing Club led by Sci-Tech Staff member Sam Sheran!
For just $36, you’ll get six one-and-a-half-hour small-group D&D sessions professionally facilitated by a Sci-Tech staff member! There will be two clubs/campaigns, one for Lower Camp and one for Upper Camp. Each club will meet once a month for 6 months! Each club has only six players to guarantee equal and meaningful playtime. The same six players in each club will meet monthly for six months.
Lower Camp
(current 3rd-6th graders)
Meeting Times: 7–8:30 PM ET
Dates: Jan 9, Jan 30, Feb 27, Mar 27, Apr 24, May 22
Campaign Description: As an officer of the Order, your sworn mission is to find out what lurks in the wild space of the world and to protect the people of the world from the dangers they pose. Your unit has been tasked with figuring out the source of newly frequent highly-powered monsters. Look for clues hiding in small towns, discover the hidden secrets in big cities, fight monsters, and keep people safe.
Upper Camp
(current 7th-10th graders):
Meeting Times: 8–9:30 PM ET
Dates: Dec 19, Jan 23, Feb 6, Mar 6, Apr 3, May 1
Campaign Description: While the mysterious Order investigates the dangers in the wilderness, the Protector’s Guild is much more reasonably focused on the dangers not hidden in the woods. And when a mysterious symbol keeps cropping up at the scene of crimes across the country, it’s all hands on deck to figure out who—or what—is wreaking havoc. Investigate crimes, uncover clues, and unravel the conspiracy fighting to make life a lot less safe.
SAM SHERAN
Sam Sheran has been an active member of the Sci-Tech community for the past 9 years, starting as a camper in 2016 and continuing on to be a machon, a counselor, and a songleader. During their time as a camper, they found joy in tabletop roleplaying games (TTRPGs) through the TTRPG chug, and went on to lead the chug for two summers. Sam is passionate about building camp community during the school year, and made many of their closest friends through year-round connection with their friends and hallmates. They love camp, and are excited to return to Sci-Tech for their 10th summer in 2025! When they aren’t at camp, Sam is a sophomore double majoring in music and psychology at the University of Rochester, where they are an avid participant and service leader at their Hillel and serve on the executive board of their sorority.
