what is this event about?... having fun playing board games, irl; with actual people, irl. It is very fun, for everyone, and pre-pandemic sometimes we were "standing room only" (almost). Barring checking your phone for work/babysitter msgs, we request that you 'unplug' & not use your digital devices. 😊
