3/6/12 - Weekday Games & Semi-Competitive Sundays! Tuesday (3/13) will mark the return of our Tuesday/Thursday weekday games, starting at 5ish until sundown.

We are extremely happy to have beginners! Whether you are new to our group, or new to Euro games (or both!), we will help you to find a game that you will enjoy :) If you have a specific game you wish to p …
