A letter From Ariel
one of our D&D Adventures League DMs
Hi,
I wanted to let everyone know about
an online gaming weekend to raise money
for Bell's Gaming Center.
They will be running games on 5/2-5/3 through Roll20.
We even have an author only module
with Amy Lynn Dzura (she is super awesome).
The entry fee is $15 for
unlimited games over the weekend
and it goes to allow Bell's
to keep their doors open
after the COVID19 restrictions are lifted.
Bells is important to me because
they raise money for extra life and
our local children's hospital.
The Event is called Bell's -n- Whistles
The discord is here:
https://discord.gg/vYavPx4
The warhorn is here:
https://warhorn.net/events/bells-n-whistles
Thank you so much everyone and
please stay safe during these crazy times.
A message from Hailey
Thank you so much for coming out
to support Bells Gaming Center!
During the COVID19 restrictions
small businesses have had
a difficult time especially our FLGS.
Bells is very near and dear to our hearts
and continues to give back to the community.
It has raised money for Extra Life
and hosts a local middle school DnD campaign.
We want our store continue to have its doors open
after the shelter at home order ends
so a bunch of DMs banded together
to raise money for the store.
This is a weekend of gaming online
and we hope you all have fun!
1) How do I register?
The warhorn link is here:
https://warhorn.net/events/bells-n-whistles
Once you pay the entry fee of $15
and we clear you- you can register for games!
Paypal payment information

Venmo Payment information
@bellsgamingcenter
Venmo preferred
Put "bells n whistles" as a comment
2) How does game day look?
We will be using discord for voice chat
and roll20 to host games.
As we get closer to the date
we will post the table links to join
so you can import your character to your tables.
3) I'm not familiar with roll20 can I still play?
Yes! Let us know what you need help with
and we will work with you.
Please let us know before game day
and we can help you set up your character.
4) Is this adventure's league? yes- if it's your first time playing Adventures league you will start out at level 1. The main requirements for making a character are using point buy and using the Player's Handbook in addition to one other source book. (Elemental Evil can only be used for races and we are not running Eberron content during this event so no Eberron books). If you'd like to learn more about adventure's league and organized play here's a link below! With AL you can bring a character from one table to the next regardless of city or game store. If you have difficulty making a character please let us know and we'd be happy to help! https://dnd.wizards.com/playevents/organized-play
5) Where's the code of conduct? We are all here to have fun and support the store. While playing everyone has a right to feel safe and included. Please be considerate of your fellow players and DM. If at any time you feel uncomfortable please let an admin or DM know immediately. There's more details on the link below:

Williamson County Judge Bill Gravell issued orders, effective at 6 p.m. Wednesday March 18th-2020, that prohibits gatherings of 10 or more until May 11. He said it applies to weddings, churches, religious services or any other activities where people gather.
Restaurants must close their dining areas open to the public, but can still provide takeout or no-contact delivery services. Bars cannot allow consumption of alcohol on their premises and have to close their common areas, as well, Gravell said.
Honestly I do not know when we will be allowed to game again. But I plan on being here when we do.

Go Fund ME started by one of my customers

Charlie- One of Bell's Gamers, started a go fund me today to help keep the store alive. Yes, this is how much our community loves the store. And just one more of many ways the community shows how awesome they are.
Our business model is based on being a Community Center for people of all ages and families to gather and play table top games like Dungeons & Dragons, Board Games, and Magic:The Gathering.
The latest mandate from Williamson County limits group meetups to 10 or less. And the madate is from March 18th - May 11th.
This pretty much shuts my business model down.
For now, we have cancelled all of our events and are just open for busines to sell games, books, and cards off of the shelves.

"I would just like to encourage others to do what little they can do
at this time to help. It's places like Mikes that have helped people
come together and to create a community,
giving folks a sense of community and belonging
while enjoying their hobbies.
This type of funding ensures that when
this the global health situation subsides,
we can once again reconnect and enjoy what Mike has built for us all.
Small businesses like Bell's Gaming Center are so reliant
on our contributions to continue doing what they do.
Businesses like this are run at a significant personal cost,
just because they enjoy entertaining people like us.
Bells has always been community first,
so it's our turn to make sure the community thrives."
