Join us for a fun-filled evening of strategy games with the Glen Burnie Board Card Game Meetup Group! Whether you're a seasoned gamer or new to the world of tabletop games, this event is perfect for everyone. Expect a variety of exciting games such as board games and card games, new friends and enjoy a relaxing and social atmosphere while engaging in friendly competition. This game night promises to be filled with laughter, strategic thinking, and unforgettable memories. Don't miss out on a fantastic opportunity to connect with fellow gamers and have a great time! Q: Is this event free? A: Overall, yes, until you get addicted and start buying games too! There is an expectation to at least buy a drink from Panera to show our appreciation for having us. Q: Where is everyone? A: Everyone is located in the very back of Panera. However, we have grown and sometimes we tend to also take up half of Panera at times and can be found anywhere including outside when it is nice. Q: What time is the event? A: We start at 3:30 and we aren't strict on punctuality. Just keep in mind when arriving late you may have a little wait on joining in on a game. Q: How do I start playing a game? A: We all just kind of figure it out as we go. Just introduce yourself and we will try to help you get into a game Q: What kind of games do you play? A: We tend to play fast-paced games that are less than an hour long. However, we have grown and now have some members that like to play longer and more strategic games. Q: Can I eat while I play? A: Often yes, but always ask the owner of the game if it's ok. Q: Do I have to bring a game? A: No. we have a ton of games and we are always expanding our collection Q: Can I bring a game? A: Absolutely! Every game at this event is brought by attendees. Just be sure you're familiar enough with the rules to teach new players. Q: What if I didn't RSVP? A: We would ask that you RSVP for a future meetup and go to that one. We have gotten quite popular to the point of almost taking over the Panera. In the winter when it is cold out we can’t play games in the outside space and we don’t want to ruin our good standing or get in trouble with Panera. RSVPing also gives members a chance to know who they expect to see in the group. It also helps with emergency situations where we may need to move our location last minute and we can let you know so you don’t end up going to the wrong place. Q: What if I have a problem with someone in the group? A: Please let the event organizers be aware of the issue or send a personal message to the organizer of the group. We are an inclusive group but if someone is the type of person who regularly ruins the enjoyment of the others in the game group, we may decide to remove them from the group. We will take it seriously and determine the course of action. Thanks for joining and hope you have a great time when you attend. If you have a request or questions please feel free to message me 😃

This session is open forum to share your current projects—whether complete or in progress, it’s all interesting! Whether you’re deep into embedded systems, exploring new ideas, or just getting started, you’ll find a welcoming space to collaborate, share, and get inspired. **New to electronics or curious about tinkering?** You’re absolutely welcome. If you’re a beginner and want to experiment, I’ll have a couple of starter kits available so you can try things out—whether that’s blinking your first LED, putting something on a display, or experimenting with simple sensors. No pressure and no experience required—just an interest in learning and building. While we continue to pursue a more permanent venue for this Meetup, we’ll be using public library facilities based on availability. This session will be at the Worthington Park Library in the Olentangy Meeting Room.
