What we’re about
If you are looking to find local board game enthusiasts AND support local charities, this is the Meetup for you. OCG is a volunteer run charity organization that focuses on teaching board games as an avenue to build and strengthen personal connections and a local and online community to support our local charities. All regular events are free and we have Coordinators on hand to assist you in joining groups to play games and make new friends. The locations are chosen to support local community organizations and our annually adopted charity and offer the opportunity to support them while you play.
We currently have members interested in everything from Catan and Ticket to Ride through Mare Nostrum and Food Chain Magnate, but this will ebb and flow depending on those participating. Don’t worry if you’ve only every played games like Sorry and Monopoly. Family board games have come a long way and OCG is here to teach and introduce you to next generation of games.
Our main event is scheduled for every 2nd Saturday of the month. Having just celebrated our 10 Year Anniversary, we have a very active core and consistently attract approximately 60-90 people to our 2nd Saturday gaming event.
Smaller events are also posted throughout the month to give people the opportunity to game when available. We are currently looking for dedicated teachers, event planners, and volunteers to further grow the community. So, if you are interested, please contact the Organizer, Joe Brown for more information.
Looking forward to gaming with you! Thanks!
