Meeple Leaf

• This is an outdoor tabletop gaming event. Free to attend, all are welcome.
• We will be bringing an assortment of about 30-40 games that work well outdoors (see list below).
• You're welcome to bring your own games, but we recommend games with few or no cards so they don't blow away.
• The event runs from noon until sunset or approximately 9:00pm, which is when the park closes (whichever is earlier). Some people come for the whole time, others just for a game or two. You're welcome to drop by and stay as long as you would like.
• In case of poor weather, we will cancel the event with as much notice as possible.

Transportation:
The park is right across from the Main St./Science World Skytrain Station. For those who are driving there's plenty of pay parking close by.

Suggestions to bring:
- Water
- Food (There are some close quick options - McDonald's, Triple O's takeout window, etc)
- Sun protection (sunscreen, hat, sunglasses).
- Hand sanitizer

Other stuff:

• You are welcome to come on your own; we have a few volunteers who can help people get into groups, and teach games if needed.
• If any of the games are missing pieces, the dry-erase markers aren't working, etc, please let one of the volunteers know. We usually have extras.
• If anyone is being a jerk, please let a volunteer know. Sometimes people just aren't aware of their jerkiness; sometimes they need to be booted.
• Please keep an eye on your personal belongings. The organizers are not responsible for lost/missing items.
• Photos and/or videos may be taken throughout the event - usually wider shots of numerous people, like the poster above. If you don't want to appear in any photos or videos, please let us know when you arrive and we will try to not include you, though we can't guarantee it.
• Washrooms: There are several port-a-potties within the park. They have hand sanitizer, if it's empty, we likely have more. If you prefer a "real" washroom, with running water, the closest one is about a 5-10 minute walk, at Andy Livingstone Park, right next to the tennis courts.

Hope to see you there - happy gaming!

Board Game Arena (BGA) is an online platform where you can play many popular tabletop games, for free, right in your browser!

To play the games, please join the Vancouver Boardgamers Discord server at the link in the event description. That will allow us to chat via audio in real time.

For each event we'll start in the "Welcome/LFG (looking for game)" audio channel. Depending on the number of players and what kind of game they want to play, we may split up into different channels.

You will need to register on BGA (boardgamearena.com), which only takes a minute or so. It's free to sign up for a basic account. Then please put your BGA username in the "Board Game Arena (BGA) usernames" text channel so the host can easily invite you to the games.

Many of the games on BGA are free for anyone to play. Some games require a premium (paid) account; a few of our regular attendees have premium accounts. (It's quite affordable, at about $4 per month, or $48 for a full year.) If you're brand new to BGA and need any guidance on creating an account, please join the Discord server at the beginning of a game night and ask if one of the other attendees can help you to get set up before the games begin.

Happy Gaming, everyone!
