What we’re about
Our mission is to enrich the community of Richmond with new ways to find new friendships and enjoy life to the fullest together.
A community of friends and adventurers who emphasize building healthy, safe spaces for folks who wish to explore Tabletop Role Playing games together. For both seasoned gamers and newcomers, we host events where all feel welcome and enjoy new connections and shared stories. Together we equip and encourage both Game Masters and players around collaborative play where we put people first.
We play a variety of game systems, although Dungeons and Dragons is the most well-known among them. This is a great place to have access to a variety of campaigns and groups that occur outside of main events to pursue more expansive stories and settings. While the central focus is on role playing games, we also have other events such as festivals, cookouts, conferences, and hands-on activities.
Some expectations of guild members:
We uphold a tradition of values within the group, please review these here:

As a guild we are hoping to maintain an "active" community count, which means that after about 4 months of no engagement you will be removed from the group. That does not mean you cannot rejoin again if you wish.
Due to the hard work Game Masters put in to facilitate these events, please respect the RSVP system by cancelling 48 hours ahead of time. No-shows will be marked, and without sufficient explanation, 2 "strikes" and you will be removed from the group. (Sickness and emergencies are understandable, please just actively communicate)

Summary of the event:
"Experience the only Class III-IV white water rapids in a major U.S. city! You'll see why Outside Magazine named Richmond its "Best River Town." We start just outside of downtown in the beautiful urban forest of the James River Park System. Then we’ll turn the corner at Belle Isle to see the Richmond skyline laid out in front of us…and it’s time to conquer the Class III-IV Lower section of the mighty James River through downtown!We’ll stop at the halfway point to re-hydrate and grab a snack while taking in the urban whitewater views. There will be plenty of time for swimming and staying cool before we takeout at the bottom of historic Shockoe Slip, having run the best (and biggest) rapids in downtown Richmond! At that point we'll be back at the Riverside Outfitters shop for a beverage and some front porch sittin'...no better place to relax and share war stories with your guide."
