Northwest Pinball Summer Camp

July 10, 2020 - July 12, 2020

Welcome Campers! While the global pinball community works to adapt to the many difficulties that the Covid era has presented the world and our hobby – join your pals in Seattle to celebrate the friendships, talent, and the playful spirit that makes our scene great!

As we stay home together this year, let’s not lose sight of the incredible bonds that have formed over this wonderful game with a two day series of spirit lifting online content including:

Photo contest! Dress up for camp, or trick out your living room/bedroom/yard like a campsite. OR BOTH. Prizes for best costume and best site!

Pinyasa – Beginner friendly and pinball player focused yoga and meditation events from Namaslay with Alyson Rae and Pinyasa. On Zoom

Crafternoon on Zoom – craft, paint, doodle, color, build, cook, knit, sew, garden, assemble your IKEA furniture – whatever’s clever! Show and Tell your quarantine creative superpowers while catching up with pinball friends old and new!

Seattle’s Skill Shot Pincast will be celebrating their 75th episode LIVE ON CAMERA with a special NWPSC edition. https://www.facebook.com/groups/nwpinballsummercamp/

Unofficial NWPAS mixologist Second Place Andy is currently infusing a batch of his ‘Pinball Mojo’ shot-in-a-bottle for curbside pickup in lower Queen Anne throughout the weekend. Preorder information coming soon! https://www.facebook.com/groups/nwpinballsummercamp/

Mess Hall Madness – a live cooking show with Jessica Kent of twitch.tv’s Enter Your Ingredients. Start Sunday right with Peasant Pancrepes, Master of Granola, and Catapult Breakfast Casserole – shopping list available a week prior to the event to stock your pantry. https://www.twitch.tv/enteryouringredients

Babes in Pinland Presents: Gunch Bunch Brunch! An hour after the cooking show is complete, Babes, Belles, and all other silverball sisters are invited to sit down for an early afternoon brunch on Zoom.

GeekGamer.TV presents: The Ultimate Pinball Game Show! Chase and Ashley’s fun seminars are always a huge crowd pleaser at NWPAS, and they are full of bright ideas to bring right to your campsite. https://www.twitch.tv/geekgamertv

Watch Party: ‘PINBALL SUMMER’! The pin-fam goes to the drive-in to observe this 1979 summer shlock-flick, available on YouTube. Option to join in the heckling in a special Discord chat room.

To Be Announced: a variety of online gaming, all weekend long! Jackbox, Cards Against Humanity, and digital Pinball are on the menu so far.

Talent Show! Now taking submissions for a *five minute* showcase of music, dance, spoken word, jokes, stupid human tricks, vaudevillian antics, or straight up miracles! Hosted by Goblin Juggler  https://www.twitch.tv/goblin_juggler

All campers will have a public Facebook group to check in for updates, links, announcements, fun discussions, an ongoing Truth Or Dare game, opportunities to reminisce about NWPAS past, and drop in and out of a Facebook ‘Room’ to have casual chats and revelry. https://www.facebook.com/groups/nwpinballsummercamp//

While nothing can replace the experience of the conventions that bring the world’s pinball communities together this season, we here at NW Pinball Summer Camp are proud of the tenacity, whimsy, and ceaseless spirit of collaboration within the Seattle pin-fam, and hope it brings laughs and love across our region and beyond on an otherwise sad weekend. PINBALL FOREVER!!!
