Wed, Dec 11, 2024, 4:30 PM CSTD&D at Stay and Play Game Cafe - 2nd Wednesday of Month
Stay and Play Game Cafe, Chicago, IL
New to D&D or just need a refresher? No problem!
Want to continue from or jump into a previously-launched campaign? No problem!

Join one of Stay and Play Game Cafe's resident Dungeon Masters and up to 6 others for a fun adventure.

For the best experience, 3 adventures at minimum are needed and no more than 7 in total. The time window will allow for more than enough time for intros, campaign, and breaks in between. All the while, order and enjoy some food and drinks while you play.

So grab your dice (or borrow a set from us), and get ready to roll initiative.

Note: RSVPs are required and keeping your RSVP updated is important. That allows us to properly allocate our DMs as well as manage folks that are on the waitlist.

Note2: Given that we've had a large uptick in "no-shows" we will be reaching out (via direct message) to first timers to confirm their participation. If we don't hear back, we will be move them to either "waitlist" or "not-going" as appropriate so as to allow those on the waitlist a chance to get in. I hope everyone can appreciate the need for us to do so. If you have questions, please let me know.

Stay and Play Game Cafe, Chicago, IL
It has been neat building out such a great and friendly community of fellow board game fans here on the Northwest Side of Chicago. Yesenia and I (Jose) are so tickled to be now able to host regularly scheduled game night events here at our very own venue: Stay and Play Game Cafe.

We have a great menu and full drink service for those of you looking to purchase some grub or drinks. See here: https://stayandplaygamecafe.com/menu

Any event participants that purchase $10 of food and/or drink from our menu will get their Game Pass fee waived.

Our library is stocked with over 700+ games to play. Check the library out here: https://stayandplaygamecafe.com/game-library

However, the owners are absolutely fine with you bringing your own titles and letting them know what additional titles they should look to add.

Finally, all skill levels are welcome. This is a really friendly group; always willing to teach games they are familiar with and a healthy appetite for learning new ones.

Looking forward to seeing you there. We know that plans change, so please kindly update your RSVP if you can't make it.

Thanks!

—Jose and Yesenia
