Please join us for the First Monday Newcomer-Friendly North Happy Hour at BJ’s Restaurant and Brewhouse on Mopac in the Arbor Walk shopping center! They have a beautiful, good-size, wood-paneled bar with several high-top tables and booths. It’s the *perfect place* to mingle and enjoy discounted beverages and appetizers, so **SAVE the date and MARK your calendars** for this special FIRST MONDAY North Happy Hour! You don't HAVE to be a newcomer to attend this event, but if you ARE a "newbie," and live north of the river, this happy hour was created with YOU in mind! It is a great way to become acquainted with some of our established members and get a feel if this group is a good fit for you. It’s also a great way to meet other newcomers who are joining us at the same time. This is also the perfect event if you're a member who hasn't participated in a while and perhaps are newly retired with time on your hands, experiencing changes, or just wanting to catch up with friends old and new, you will find this to be a welcoming, friendly gathering where you can mingle and make connections with other like-minded people "of a certain age" while enjoying BJ's menu of Happy Hour-priced beverages and delicious food. We hope you will join us! Plenty of free parking.

Looking for a fun weeknight hangout, great drinks, and some brain-powered competition? Join us at Barrett’s Too in Austin for [Geeks Who Drink Trivia Night](https://www.geekswhodrink.com/venues/2606972172/?quiz_id=656559476becb85672859728), a fast-paced, team-based trivia experience perfect for anyone who loves pop culture, random facts, movies, music, science, and everything in between. This is an easygoing way to meet new people in Austin, connect with fellow trivia lovers, and jump into a lively local scene. Whether you’re a seasoned quizmaster or just here for the laughs, you’ll fit right in. Geeks Who Drink brings a unique style of trivia with themed rounds, audio and visual questions, and plenty of surprises. Teams can form in the event chat or once you arrive, so come solo or bring friends—either way, you’ll be part of a group. [Barrett’s Too](https://www.instagram.com/barrettstoo) offers a relaxed vibe, great service, and a solid menu of drinks to enjoy while you play. Please be aware of the following: * This event is outdoors, on the back patio. There are some heaters, but if it’s cold, it’s best to dress warmly. * Parking in front of the place is very limited, but you can also park in the neighborhood nearby, for example, on Avenue F. * Trivia starts at 7pm, but I recommend everyone get there around 6:30pm, so we have time to split into teams (max size is 6), and so we can get good tables. Trivia is popular at this location, so all of the tables tend to fill up.

We’re a safe, friendly, inclusive, and diverse group. New players are always welcome — we’re happy to teach games and help you find a table.

📅 First meetup: Monday, March 9. This is a pilot, so potentially every other Monday after that!
​
📍The Secret Lantern Books and Games in Cedar Park. Housed in a former bank, this shop is now the very definition of “cozy.” Think comfy upholstered furniture, warm lighting, and tucked-away corners, perfect for settling into a long game. And yes — there’s a Vault Room, complete with massive steel door and spinning wheel handle, now reborn as one of the coolest places around to plot your next heist— err, move.
​
⏰ Good to know:
• You’re welcome to arrive earlier to hang out or play, but games will definitely start at 6:00 pm.
• The store opens at 10:00 am — if you want to make a whole game day of it, leave a comment!
• Coffee drinks and light food are available for purchase at the store — please support our host venue.
​
🎲 What to bring:
• Your favorite board games (optional)
• Or just bring yourself — there’s always room to join in
​
Whether you’re brand new to board games or a seasoned player, come roll some dice, learn something new, and enjoy a great Monday night with awesome people.
