Dragon's Laire Events
Life is back in full swing! We have our regular weekly gatherings and practices, events are happening all over the Kingdom of An Tir, and you’d barely know we endured the plague.
You can always check our News or the official Dragon’s Laire Facebook group for up-to-date information.
Weekly Social & Fighter Practices
Everyone is welcome at our weekly social! Come in your modern clothes, no garb required. Fighters should bring their gear — or you can arrange to borrow loaner gear from the appropriate Marshal and try out something new. If you are crafty, feel free to bring a project you are working on and join a table with others who are doing the same!
Almost all of our weekly events are held at: VFW Post 4992
9981 Central Valley Rd NE, Bremerton, WA 98311
