The Slingshot Esports Gaming Center, known as Base Camp is a special space that invites players of all ages to gather together to socialize, develop their gaming skills, hang out, and compete. Designed to be fun, inviting, and a haven for both gamers and esports athletes, Base Camp's vibe is encouraging and supportive of gamers. In here, stereotypes are eliminated. 

Base Camp offers 18 PCs, three PS5 consoles, an Xbox 1 S console, one Xbox Series S, and one Xbox Series X. In addition, we have 5 Nintendo Switches each connected to a large screen TV. One of the PCs is set up as flight simulator running Microsoft Flight Simulator and two other PCs are connected to a racing wheel, complete with pedals and gear shift, immersing players in Need for Speed Heat, Assetto Corsa, BeamNG, and Dirt Rally 2.0. Current games include Minecraft, Roblox, Rocket League, Marvel Rivals, Apex Legends, Fortnite, Valorant, Madden NFL 25, Civilization VI, Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Sage, Fall Guys, Brawlhalla, Multiverses, Peak, Mario Kart Deluxe 8, Super Smash Bros Ultimate, and more. 

A variety of Slingshot Events are held at Base Camp, including RAIDs (opening gaming) and other events. Some of the events are free and open to the public while others require registration and a fee. Check out the Events page to see what's coming next.

Graciously hosted by Calvary Temple Church, Base Camp is located at 3436 Winchester Road, Allentown, PA. For more information, please see here. 

Base Camp officially opened it doors to gamers on March 23, 2023 with its first RAID. Players were invited to descend upon the center to play video games and hang out in a fun, safe, environment. Offering the titles of Minecraft, Rocket League, Fortnite, Apex Legends, and Fall Guys, players could choose the game that interested them and start gaming.

Private Gaming Sessions & Parties

While we love seeing everyone during our public RAIDs and scheduled events, we know that sometimes you want the space all to yourself. Whether you're celebrating a milestone or just want a dedicated night of gaming with your closest friends, we are happy to open our doors for your private groups.

Base Camp is one of the ways that Slingshot Esports invests in both the gaming community and the local community.
