Board Gaming for Dads - York Region
\*\*NEW LOCATION UPDATE\*\*
HELLO Everyone,
We are happy to announce that our 6 year running group will be moving our weekly event back to our old location which is now under the Fionn MacCools banner. Game night will be at Fionn MacCools at 125 York Blvd #135 in Richmond Hill.
Start time is at 7 PM sharp, so please do you absolute best to show up at least a few minutes before then. If you feel you are running late, let us know in the group chat or contact one of the organizers directly.
If you are new to the group, we are made up of a friendly group of Dad's who like to play large variety of Euro style games both new and old.
We encourage everyone to please try and support venue partner with food and/or drink orders, if at all possible.
While the organizers usually bring a number of titles, it's fairly common for attendees to bring a game or two of their own to these events. You may want to keep in mind factors like game duration and table space required, set up time and repacking time. If you do not have anything to bring, don't feel like you have to, we've got you covered.
Because the player count is usually not known precisely until everyone shows up, having extra games around with varying player counts helps when deciding what to play.
Looking forward to seeing you at our next event!! PLEASE RSVP if you are coming, cheers!!

There is no event fee. Instead we ask attendees to purchase beverages or food from the venue, Steadfast Brewery, conveniently located at Lansdowne and Dundas, 301 Lansdowne Ave. Of course, since they are offering us their space for free, please consider buying a drink if you can.

Steadfast offers an annual Brew Membership called **The Mug Club** that offers the following:
Your own mug! It has your name on it and is reserved for you.
A larger pour-19.5 oz vs 16 oz
1$ off pours in that mug (if you do the math, this sums to about a 40% discount on beer to stay, I think)

30% off merch.
It costs $150 year one, $100 every year after that.
