To host an event, board games, card games or miniatures, contact 
Roland Fricke.  As a reminder, most of our board game GMs do not schedule their events. With an average monthly attendance of 35, there is plenty of activity for gamers.   Feel free to bring a copy of your favorite game or you are always welcome to play in one of ours. Due to the space and time commitments of miniatures, hosts of these events are encouraged to contact Roland to guarantee space and time availability.
