Gaming Nights at The Performers Academy
2024 Saturday Dates: Sep 7 ~ Oct 5 ~ Nov 2 ~ Dec 7
FREE - Open Play Game Nights on the 1st Saturday of Each Month
7 pm to 9 pm
We are excited to host our monthly series called Tech Connect: Bridging the Gap through Esports and Technology.
These social gaming and networking events are for students aged 12 to 20 so please bring them to The Performers Academy in #Jacksonville on Saturday, Oct 5th from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm.
We'll have games setup to play on Gaming PCs and Laptops, Nintendo Switch and Virtual Reality systems. Parents, we'll have some guitar hero on the Wii and other games for you as well.
We'd like to recognize and thank to Rebecca with Club Challenge of Orange Park for providing snacks and drinks for the gamers during last month's event. They enjoyed it so much, I didn't have time to take a photo of it all before it was gone!
Also, Florida State College at Jacksonville Computer Networking Instructor Cheryl Schmidt was on hand to showcase some IP Phones, Routers and Switches. And she even brought some cool swag to give away.
Cheryl and FSCJ will be back again next week and she is bringing out some Raspberry Pi devices to play around with.
And speaking of Pi, Leaderboard Arcade will be providing another type of Pi for the kids.....Pizza Pies! It's so good.
These events are made possible in part through community grants and support from United Way of Northeast Florida City of Jacksonville, Florida - Government and Kids Hope Alliance.
If you would like to help us continue with these events, please consider a contribution. You can make a donation on our website at firstcoastesports.org
