Another HUGE thank you to everyone who participated in our Pack Drive for the Boys & Girls Club this past Sunday!

We were able to drop everything off this week, and received a photo of the Teen Director showing off all of the amazing donations. They were just as excited to get them as we were to deliver them!

Our goal with this pack drive was simple: help introduce more local kids to the hobby we all love and hopefully create memories that last a lifetime. Thanks to your generosity, we were able to take the first step.

We truly appreciate everyone who donated packs or helped spread the word. This community continues to amaze us, and we’re already looking forward to our next pack drives at future Pocket Monster Showdown events.

Thank you all for helping make a difference!
