Rochester Wargamers Association and Guild

Rochester Wargamer's Association and Guild (RWAG) is a recreational organization for those that enjoy such activities as wargames, role playing games (RPGs), live action role playing games (LARPs), board games, and card games. Although officially a Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) student club, RWAG is a community oriented organization whose members come not only from the RIT student body but also from the number of RIT alumni as well as local community members. RWAG brings members together, provides facilities to conduct game sessions, exposes interested members to different game venues, and represents interests of the members to the RIT Student Government, faculty, and administration. RWAG also organizes occasional social events such as movie outings, and BBQs. In addition, to further benefit its members, RWAG ocassionaly promotes other student organizations. For more information about RWAG please visit the RWAG site above and refer to the RWAG Constitution.

2008-06-23 10:42:31   As one of the ones currently running RWAG, for the next year and all of last year, I can confirm that it's active and growing. The site is currently down, so I've updated information here. We have a lot of things in the works so check us out, we're open to the public. —DaveSorensen
