    Details:

    The Southern Maryland House of Nerf LLC (SMDHON) is a Foam Blaster Battle organization which hosts events for children and adults alike. Events are typically held once a month from March through November. Our primary objective is to provide a safe and fun opportunity for our players to come out, run around and fling foam.

    Our events are laid out in a series of rounds, each lasting between 5 and 15 minutes. We play a variety of objective and elimination based game modes, so there’s plenty of fun for every kind of player. Our admins join in the games too, and our goal is for you to enjoy these events as much as us.

    For the 2021 event season, tickets are 12 dollars online or 15 dollars at the door. These prices allow us to cover costs of hosting, including venue costs and equipment such as provided darts and the cover and objectives used in gameplay. In order to keep these prices as low as possible, we also accept donations, both monetary and equipment such as darts. If you wish to make an equipment donation, speak to an admin at one of our events, reach out on our Discord or Facebook.

ABOUT THE CREATOR OF THE PLAYFUL PARENT

The Playful Parent was created by Kristy a mother of three energetic boys. She has a Bachelors degree with a interest in Education and Masters in Clinical Community Counseling from Johns Hopkins University. “I believe that children learn through play! I love to do fun things with my children and hope that sharing our adventures provides other families with inspiration and resources that lead to quality time together and a love for learning!” This non profit 501c3 organization was started so parents would have a family friendly place to come to, feel supported and leave with information that is useful. This site is kept advertisement and influence free in order to keep the page from clutter and bias opinion. Your support, feedback, likes and comments are essential; this site was designed to connect the community. The Playful Parent offers resources such as guides, calendars and ideas for making learning fun. In addition, TPP is present in the community and hosts a handful of events to support SOMD in raising healthy families.
