Games, Games, and More Games!

Just some things to note:

Cool River are very welcoming to us and happy to have us there, so let's try and support them however we can. Nobody requires us to buy food or drinks, but let's do what we can to show some love.

-You are not required to bring your own games but you are welcome to. Bring along anything you want to teach also.

- Please do your best to keep games and the game tables clean. Games can be very expensive, so please keep your hands clean and napkins under drinks. That's greatly appreciated!

-Don't rely on the RSVP numbers as many people do not RSVP. Typically we have a minimum of 15-25 players playing about 4 different games at any given time.

-Games range from simple card games to complex strategy games to everything in between...but we like to keep it fun and light, no matter what game is being played.

-If you are new to the group, please don't feel shy. Just jump into a game or join a table that needs a player. Although we try, sometimes we don't even notice who's new and who's not. It's a large meetup group with some infrequent attendees and sometimes we rarely look up from whatever game we are playing. We are all very open and welcoming and really just want to play and have fun, so join us :)

-If there is no open game at the time, feel free to find a game that's near ending and wait to start a new game with those players, or grab a game from the community games area (or a game you brought from home) and sit at an open table to wait for players and start a game of your own. Just try to be respectful of others' games (don't touch cards with oily fingers, etc).

-If you need help finding a game to get into, please don't hesitate to ask the organizers, Ric or Erika, and we'll be happy to get you started.

-Lastly, games can be pretty expensive. Please do your best to keep the game tables clean. And at the end of the game, please do look around and on the floor for any game pieces that may have been found on the floor. It's very much appreciated.
