CALLING ALL ADVENTURERS!
Castle in the Sky will be the premier destination for all things related to tabletop gaming, video games, and more to the communities of Alpine, TX, and the surrounding areas.
We're excited to introduce you to our dream project - a game store right here in our beloved small town. We're reaching out to you on GoFundMe because we believe that with your support, we can make this dream a reality.
The Dream:
Our small town is a tight-knit community where everyone knows each other, but there's one thing missing - a dedicated game store. We've always had a passion for tabletop games, board games, and video games, and we want to share that passion with our community. Our dream is to create a welcoming and inclusive space where gamers of all ages and backgrounds can come together to play, learn, and connect.
Why We Need Your Help:
Starting a game store from scratch is no easy feat. We've been working tirelessly to secure a location, build inventory, and create a space that fosters a sense of community. However, to make this dream a reality, we need your support to cover the initial startup costs, including:
- Rent and Utilities: Finding the perfect location in our small town is challenging but essential. Your contributions will help us secure our store location and keep the lights on.
- Inventory: We want to offer a wide selection of games, from classics to the latest releases. Your donations will help us stock our shelves with a diverse range of games to cater to all tastes.
- Gaming Equipment: To ensure an enjoyable gaming experience, we need tables, chairs, gaming accessories, and comfortable seating for our customers.
- Events and Tournaments: We plan to host gaming nights, tournaments, and events to bring our community closer. Your support will help us organize and run these activities.
Why It Matters:
Having a local game store isn't just about selling games; it's about fostering a sense of belonging and camaraderie in our community. Here's why our game store matters:
- Community Building: Our store will be a hub for social interaction, where friendships are formed and strengthened through shared gaming experiences.
- Learning Opportunities: We'll offer workshops and tutorials for newcomers, encouraging people to learn new games and expand their horizons.
- Supporting Local: By contributing to our campaign, you're not just helping us; you're investing in our community's economic growth and cultural richness.
