CENTRAL & SOUTHERN NH

AUGUST EVENTS & CLUB REGISTRATIONS  Vol. 1

JUNIOR NERF CLUB
I have just posted the information below about Home School Nerf Club, but since I have had so many inquiries about our younger home schoolers joining, I thought I would put out feelers for a Mini (younger) Home School Nerf Club. 

All the information below is the same for both clubs except this Mini (younger children) session would run from 12 - 1:15,  and it would be for ages 6 - 10. The games would be geared to their level, including more theme games like superheros, or cowboys, etc., and little parties for valentine’s day etc.. It will also be a smaller group.

I will only be able to do this younger session if I have a large enough enrollment, so am just putting out feelers at this point. If you are interested, please let me know quickly because I will need to reserve the gym and get set up. I think it would be so much fun for the little guys! 8 and up are still welcome to join the regular Home School Nerf Club, but I just thought I would see if people are interested in this option. For more information please read the posting below and contact me directly at cherylsark@gmail.com. Hope we have a whole bunch of little Nerflings!  ~Cheryl


HOMESCHOOL NERF CLUB
The Home School Nerf Club is starting up it's 4th year of fun and excitement! I will start taking reservations this week for our 2013-2014 year. Last year we filled up quickly and had to go to a waiting list, so if you are interested, please let me know right away.

We meet on the second Tuesday of the month (September through June) from 1:30 - 2:45, in Bow, at a fabulous gymnastics center, where we use the mats and equipment for forts and walls, while playing many organized and supervised games with Nerf Guns. 

The kids bounce off of tramps and over obstacles during our games of Capture the Flag, Last Man Standing, Castle, and MANY others each month. We have special events for holidays, and a tournament with prizes and a trophy at the end of the year.  

Our members are homeschoolers who range from ages 8 to 18, and they have had an absolute blast! Good sportsmanship, and team work are stressed, and many new friendships are made. The gym is completely padded and our rules and organization keep it all safe and fun. It is $9 per session. For more complete information, and/or to sign up, please contact me directly at cherylsark@gmail.com. Thanks, and we hope you join the fray!
