My Project

This spring will be our team's third eSports season. In our first season, we placed second in DC for Super Smash Bros. Due to our success in our first season, our team is rapidly growing. We are now hoping to offer Mario Kart as well as start a competitive drone team.

We want to make our gaming room feel welcoming to all students!

To do this, we need supplies to decorate the space and make it somewhere students want to spend their time. Due to our team growing, we need additional chairs and TVs so that everyone has a place to play.
