Welcome to your new board game group! This group is designed to encourage friends to get together. We are made up of veteran players who are always excited to teach their favorite games, as well as new faces who are playing a game for the first time. The priority is to create excuses for us to get together during the week - seeing our friends and meeting new ones. We do pretty much anything related to the hobby, so you're encouraged to bring your favorite games or propose events you'd be interested in. Our recent favorites include One Night Werewolf, Bang, Tragedy Looper and Munchkin, to name a few.
