This is an update on the Chrono Underground project - a fresh idea designed to get young people interacting in an exciting place. Right now I, project director, am studying at the University of Iowa and haven't had the opportunity to keep up with getting more fundraising and publicity for this plan.
Good afternoon! I wanted to take a moment to announce the fact that we may soon be changing the name of the project to something more creative and imaginative and local. Chrono Underground is a very unique, hard to forget name, but we are hoping to create a new name with the sort of recognition that will bring plenty of attention to our project.
Announcing our new proposed name: Muscateen Center. Send us your comments, suggestions, thoughts, and more.

(Muscatine Journal) MUSCATINE, Iowa - Nathan Cory Foutch wants a place in Muscatine where he can 'throw down' with friends.
But the 19-year-old doesn't want to fight.
"When gamers get together ... we pretty much challenge our skills — any video game, anytime, anywhere kind of thing," Foutch said.
He and four teenage friends spent several months planning a youth video game center they are asking the community to help get off the ground.
The center would offer youth a variety of games to play on Nintendo Wii, Xbox 360 or Playstation 3 video game consoles, or online on computers.

Gaming Center Atmosphere
Our plan is to create a positive, relaxed atmosphere for students and other young people. We plan to give young people a place to spend time hanging out with friends and escape from daily pressures - the sort of pressures that lead young people to drug abuse and alcohol. We will have on hand flexible friendly staff/volunteers at all times, and ensure that our game center is free from physical violence or bullying of any sort.This idea was created by teenagers, for teenagers and other young people - we will never lose our youth focus. We plan to create a mixed atmosphere, with unique colors and an imaginative design to ensure that we always have a comfortable atmosphere. The actual decorations use will be made interchangeable, so that we can vary the atmospheric settings from month to month.
