What we’re about
You love playing in life - board games, card games, hikes, hangouts, deep chats, live music, etc - but you prefer to do it with people who aren’t playing games in their (or with your) personal life.
If this describes you, you are welcome!
This group is formed out of a newfound love for cultivating local community, indulging the playful side of adulthood and meeting others who want to do the same.
The springboard for this community is starting with game nights but may branch out to more. We’ll see.

All games are to be played to 11 (TRADITIONAL SCORING), win by 2.
After 2 consecutive wins, the winning team will leave the court. The losing team will also leave if there are paddles in the holder. At the end of each game, the players with the next two paddles in the holder, will take the court as challengers.
Waiting Players: Players place their paddles in the paddle holder. The paddle holder is used to manage who is up next. (Usually 2 players-on, 2 players-off unless there are less than 2 paddles). If there are 6 or more paddles it becomes 4 players-on, 4 players-off.
If there is a single paddle up, the players coming off can decide to see who stays on. If no paddles are in holder, teams may stay on and continue to play. If you wish to play with a specific partner, or a specific group, place your paddles in the next fully open slots in the paddle holder.
It’s meant to be for all playing levels. Look around at the players in attendance, be honest about your skill level, be aware, be kind, and have fun!1 attendeeMerry Dinkmas Ugly Sweater Social
