Board games at The Forge

The Forge does have a full bar and kitchen. There is no cover charge but they do request all attendees to purchase a minimum of ~20 per person. Soft drink refills are 1 each. Please support our hosts so we can continue to provide great events for the group! The Forge has a large library of games available for us to enjoy. Hosts and regulars will also provide numerous popular games but please bring any games you would like to teach and/or play. Doors open at 6, and we expect gaming to be rolling by around 630. Please promptly end your games and clear out the space at 10pm when the bar closes. We encourage socializing but do not permit disruptive behavior of any kind. Thank you for your continued commitment to providing a fun and welcoming space to veteran, newbie, and rookie gamers in the Columbus area. Parking can sometimes fill esrly. There is additional parking lot behind the neighboring Mexican restaurant that is free and easy to walk from but it's a bit hidden.

Deal CPR: Diagnose, Restructure, and Rescue Underperforming Properties

**(Note: RSVPing here on Meetup does NOT reserve your seat. To do that, you'll need to register on our website, [HERE](https://www.coreerocks.com/Events.aspx?ID=Columbus-Chapter-Meeting-Deal-CPR-Diagnose-Restructure-and-Rescue-Underperforming-Properties-14-9-1-2026).)** Every real estate investor has one. The rental that doesn't cash flow. The flip that's finished...but still sitting. The furnished rental that won't stay occupied. The BRRRR that won't refinance. The rehab that's gone way over budget. The property you wish you could do over. The difference between experienced investors and everyone else isn't that they never buy problem properties. It's that they know how to diagnose what's really wrong—and decide whether to fix it, change it, or walk away. That's exactly what we're doing at this month's Central Ohio Chapter Meeting. First, we'll talk about how to recognize when a deal is heading in the wrong direction, what immediate steps you can take to stop the bleeding, and when it's time to bring in an experienced investor, lender, property manager, contractor, or agent who may see opportunities you've missed. Then we'll put those ideas to work. Real members will bring real properties that aren't performing the way they expected, and together we'll evaluate the options. Can better financing save the deal? Would different management change the numbers? Should more money be invested... ...or is it smarter to cut your losses and move on? You'll get to watch experienced investors work through real situations, explain how they think, and discuss the pros and cons of different solutions. Whether you've never bought your first investment property or you've owned dozens, you'll leave with practical ideas that could save you thousands of dollars on your next deal. And don't overlook one of the biggest benefits of every COREE meeting: The people in the room. Your next lender, contractor, buyer, property manager, private lender, or investing partner could be sitting at your table. **Agenda** • 5:00–6:00: Free Light Dinner and Networking • 6:00: Earlybird Meeting – *What to Do When Your Deal Is Circling the Drain* • 7:00: Buy-Sell-Trade (members only) • 7:30: *Fix My Deal: Live Property Rescue* **Again, RSVPing here on Meetup does NOT reserve your seat. To attend, you'll need to register on our website, [HERE](https://www.coreerocks.com/Events.aspx?ID=Columbus-Chapter-Meeting-Deal-CPR-Diagnose-Restructure-and-Rescue-Underperforming-Properties-14-9-1-2026).**

See if it’s true for you at 10AM on Saturday mornings. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. SCHEDULE: 10:00 - SESSION 1: quick intros. 10:10 - timer starts: write for 1 hour. 11:10 - chat / take off / keep writing. OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 11A-11:30ish. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. (I’ll be the person with the Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you! • What to bring Whatever you need to be able to write!
