August marks the first anniversary of StreetPass Long Island, and we decided to throw a huge event to celebrate! Since Pokemon is wildly popular in our group, and the new Pokemon X&Y games are due out this October, we thought it might be fun to host a Pokemon Generation 5 Send-Off Party for our First Anniversary. The party included a PVGC Doubles Tournament, a Cosplay Contest, a Plushie Contest, as well as Trivia and Funfest Missions! There was pizza, cookies, cake and prizes for all who attended!
Over 30 people came to play Pokemon, get StreetPasses and enjoy the party with us!A Gaming Lounge was set up for casual Funfest Missions.Matt and Ana, Leaders of the Pokemon DS NYC Meet Up Group, expertly ran the Tournament, which was also broadcasted live on an HD TV during the event.The entire Tournament was streamed live by Clash Tournaments!The Clash Tournaments staff also provided live commentary for each match!StreetPass Princeton came out to Long Island to enjoy the festivities!
