I am scheduling on Hallowe'en! So bring along your favourite horror game or chose one of mine, some of your choices are: Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Mall of Horror, Zombiegeddon and Werewolf.

Thrill to the gameplay, chill to when the doorbell rings with small children asking for treats! Listen to my dogs race madly up to the stairs to see who is there!

Please bring any snacks or refreshments you wish. Costumes are optional, but not required.

Rekindled by member Dan Osness. We'll play from 7pm to 10pm. Because of the short playing time, I'd recommend showing up as close to 7 as possible so games can be organized as quickly as possible.

> What will you be doing at your Meetup?

Playing a variety of boardgames and card games. Attendees supply whichever games they wish to play. The focus tends to be on the newest, highest-rated family-friendly strategy games.

> Who should come? Are newcomers welcome?

Anybody is welcome to come. Past attendees have included 15-year-olds to 60-year-olds, men and women, students and professionals. Feel free to bring along some friends, especially if you want to play a specific game.

> Do members need to bring anything?

Only the games you wish to play. There is always an abundance of games there to be played so if you don't mind learning something new, then you really don't need to bring anything other than a good attitude.

> Why should people come?

Meet new people; learn new games in a casual, friendly environment; exercise some brain cells; socialize & hang out; have FUN!

This is the usual Thursday night gaming session at the Sentry Box.

As the Sentry Box will technically be closed, you need to go to the back entrance to be let in if you arrive after normal store closing (which is at 6pm). There will be many store demo copies on hand and I will be around
to help if people need it. I can make periodic trips downstairs if people want to buy a specific item or food and pop.

It's possible if you turn up after 6.30pm that you may have to wait to get into a game but hopefully there will be enough people around that everyone should get in a game right away. Don't be shy about asking other people to play!!

Members Nathalie and Billy would like to host a game night at their residence in Bridlewood. They have room for approximately 12 people (including themselves). Their boardgame collection is mainly party games so they would appreciate it if whoever shows up could bring a few games.

They are a pet free (for now) / smoke free house (there is a patio and ashtrays for those who partake in that hobby). The kitchen table can sit 4 easily (6 - squished - if needed). I've got a "card" table that will seat 4. and the living room can fit another 6 or so.

If things go well, we might have another regular game night in the SW.

Have fun!
