Belles and Chimes Philly February Newsletter
I haven’t really nailed down an appropriate cadence for the Newsletters yet, but here we are, past January which lasted approximately 62 years, in February.
Pinball News
Before getting into upcoming events, I wanted to share a statement put out this week by IFPA - The International Flipper Pinball Association.
For reference, here is their Gender Inclusion Policy:
Belles and Chimes Philadelphia strives to be a safe and welcoming environment for cis and trans women, non-binary and gender non-conforming players. Pinball is for everyone.
Upcoming Events
Next Sunday, February 16th we’ll be holding a Galentine’s Day Strikes tournament! We’ll also be celebrating the birthday of our mascot, Pusheen (February 18th). For the top three winners, we’ll have cash prizes and Pusheen themed prizes graciously donated by one of our Belles, Tori. I've also been trying to think of a sweet treat to bring as well.
If you’ve been subscribed to the newsletter but have never come to one of our events, come check us out! We’re usually a small group - (6-12 ish people), and the pinball playing vibes are friendly, relaxed and supportive - new players and all skill levels welcome!
Tournament details are here:

Save the Date:
Following our every other month format, our next strikes tournament will be in April, likely Sunday April 28th.
and last but not least,
Go Birds!
