Board Games

What's up Friends! 👋 If the weather gods feel generous 🌤️, we’re going full park mode: picnic 🧺🌳, games, laughs… and a touch of chaos ✨ ‼️If not - we'll switch to the usual indoor format at Le Pantin or Café Leopold PDN. 📍Where Park Cinquantenaire, Tour de Tournai 🏰 (that little castle-looking thingy in the park). Can’t find us? 🤷‍♀️ Just ping me here. 💡 The Idea Chill picnic: bring your own drinks 🧃, snacks 🥪🍓, blanket, and games 🎲🏸 (sharing always appreciated 😋). We’ll break into small groups depending on the vibe: games, chats, sports. ⏱️ Timing We kick off at 14:00. Stay as long as you like. Joining later? Just drop a message in the chat in case we decide to move 😊. 🎲🏸 Games All games are welcome in the park - boards, cards, balls, random stuff! I’ll have a few with me, but feel free to add your own favorites too. 🚦On the waitlist but really want to join? Or got any questions? Just DM me. 📢 Extra info might drop in the group chat or via DM 💬. Check your messages 👀 the day before so you don't miss anything critical 🙄. 🐈‍⬛ The Friends Code: 👉 Games we play = group decision 👉 Smaller groups = cozier vibes 👉 Got a favorite game? Suggest it or show up with it 👉 Can't make it? Cancel on time so someone on the waitlist can grab your spot 👉 If you’re on the waitlist, showing up is at your own risk 😄 See you there, folks 😉

Some Sundays don’t end at lunch. After the garden BBQ event we do every Sunday ([link here](https://www.meetup.com/the-club-connect-share-explore-enjoy-repeat/events/313489633)), a smaller group usually stays around, and the evening slowly takes its own direction. Sometimes we play cards. (Uno, Undercover) Sometimes we go for a game of pool. Sometimes we end up exploring a bar or dancing somewhere in the city. There is no fixed plan. The idea is simple: **good people, good conversation, and see where the night goes.** TO RSVP please join our whatsapp chat, [LINK FOR THE CHAT](https://chat.whatsapp.com/F2hTxZ4TT3hHICiihX1Efy) for safety reason we dont share the private address here

**This Sunday we’re doing something special.** A **homemade Italian gourmet lunch** in a private home near **Plasky / Schaerbeek**, with a maximum of **10 lunch guests** for a warm, seated, convivial experience. Restaurant-style **quality**, family-style **atmosphere**. ## **What Makes It Special** The meats are sourced from the well-known **Roland Butcher in Ixelles**, respected locally for quality cuts. Several dishes are prepared using **Anova precision sous-vide cooking**: food is vacuum-sealed and cooked slowly at exact temperatures for tenderness, juiciness, and consistency, then finished with a proper sear in a **stainless steel pan** for flavour and crust. In short: old-school ingredients and traditions, modern technique, serious results. Nonna 2.0 *** ## **The Menu (Explained for Non-Italians)** ### **Antipasto (starter)** **Vitello Tonnato** A classic dish from Piedmont in northern Italy. Thin slices of cold veal topped with a silky tuna-caper sauce. Sounds unusual to some people, tastes excellent. **Italian Cheese & Charcuterie Board** Selection of cheeses and cured meats such as salami, prosciutto, and porchetta (slow-roasted seasoned pork). *** ### **Primo (first course - pasta)** **Homemade Gnocchi alla Sorrentina** Soft potato dumplings baked with tomato sauce, mozzarella, and parmesan. Paradise food from southern Italy. **Homemade Fettuccine with Lamb Ragù** Fresh ribbon pasta served with a rich slow-cooked lamb sauce. *** ### **Secondo (main course)** **Cotoletta alla Milanese** A Milan classic: breaded veal cutlet, pan-fried in butter until golden and crisp. **Brasato di Manzo al Red Wine** Beef slowly braised for 6 hours in red wine with vegetables and herbs until tender enough to surrender completely. *** ### **Contorni (side dishes)** **Homemade Mashed Potatoes with Black Truffle** Creamy mash finished with truffle. **Italian Salad** Fresh seasonal salad to balance the glorious excess. *** ### **Dolce (dessert)** **Homemade Strawberry Tiramisù** Italian layered dessert with mascarpone cream, coffee-soaked biscuits, and a fresh strawberry twist. *** ### **Drinks Included** 🍾 Prosecco 🍷 Wines: Lambrusco, Chianti, Barolo ☕ Espresso 🍋 Limoncello 🥃 Amaro *** ## **The Space** Private home with a **garden** where we can enjoy a drink in the sun (weather permitting), or move inside if Brussels behaves like Brussels. *** ## **After Lunch** Games and social afternoon: • UNO • Assassin • Undercover From **3 PM onward**, more vetted Club members can join, up to **20 total guests**. *** ## **Community Standards** **All members are vetted.** The host **personally** introduces newcomers so nobody is left awkwardly orbiting the room. **Zero tolerance for creepy or pushy behaviour. Immediate removal if needed. Some groups normalize nonsense. We don’t.** *** ## **Practical Info** • Lunch seats limited to **10** • Total after 3 PM capped at **20** • Exact address shared privately with confirmed guests • RSVP only if genuinely attending ## **Contribution** **€50 per lunch guest** A proper Sunday meal, proper company, proper standards. Rare combination.

First time comers Please make sure to read the rules and contact the organizer before! Otherwise you will be moved to waiting list. Apologies for inconvenience but we have to do it to avoid no-shows. New and Interested in being part of our group? Join here, https://chat.whatsapp.com/KqdVhyuBhFz1d56lv4WVVi Please Direct Message the Organizer with your level. Approval is required before your first RSVP. Games format. 95% are double games (unless someone needs a break), typically 4 people play together 2 sets and then mix with players from other fields. We play with plastic shuttles - Yonex Mavis 2000 (which are provided). Registration If it's your first time, please send a private message to the host to confirm. No-shows are taken quite seriously because they unbalance the games a lot. Also once you register please keep an eye on you private messages, in case we need to contact you. Players level Having players with much less experience often unbalances the game making it much less interesting for more experienced players. We still try to be welcoming. As a rule of thumb, if you know what a "clear" is, you are welcome to join. Otherwise, feel free to get in touch with me (John) and we can see if we can arrange so you and existing players can have good experience playing. Price and payments The price of participation is EUR 9. Payment is on-site in cash, or via online. Info provided during or shortly after the event in the WhatsApp group. Cancelations and no-shows Switches and cancellations are free of charge if done more than 50 hours before the start of the matches If you cancel within the 50-hour window before the event starts, you will be placed on the wait-list for the next week's event, whether or not a replacement is found. If no replacement is secured, you'll still need to cover your share of the costs. Contact Questions or first-time approval requests? DM the Organizer with your playing level and availability.

Join us for some friendly Badminton games- all levels welcome! IMPORTANT- in order to secure your place you’ll need to both book a spot on Meetup AND pay €8 by Friday morning. This is to make sure we can cancel courts if demand isn’t there, and make sure we’re being fair to people on the waitlist. Refunds will only be possible after Friday AM if another player is definitely able to take your spot Always worth joining our W’app group as well for faster, often better, updates! https://chat.whatsapp.com/IL7Gbs6TmIm0GXyidQxCFS?mode=gi_t

VERY IMPORTANT: Payment MUST be done in advance: [https://japansetuin.hasselt.be/nl/kamishibai-festival](https://japansetuin.hasselt.be/nl/kamishibai-festival) Click “tickets kamishibai” Then change the date in the form to 26/4 \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- Let’s take a small break from the noise and step into something calmer. We’ll meet in the main hall of are centrale, and go together for a relaxed walk through one of the largest Japanese gardens in Europe. Expect quiet paths, water, bridges, seasonal colors, and a very different pace. This is not a “guided tour” or a workout. Just a simple moment to slow down, walk, breathe, and connect—with the place and with each other. You’re welcome to come alone or with guests, meet new people, and just enjoy the atmosphere if that’s what you need. 👉 We’ll move slowly, stop when it feels right, maybe sit for a bit, or do some Qigong and maybe share a tea/coffee after **Practical:** * Meeting point: Gare centrale Bruxelles, train departs 8.41 to Hasselt. * Duration: You're free to leave whenever you feel like it * Bring: Comfortable shoes, weather-appropriate clothing * Optional: water, tea, or something small to share No pressure, no performance. Just a good moment. Stephan The Happy Body mo

Hello! This is a meet-up to play tennis from 2 pm to 4 pm on Sunday. Meeting is on the courts. The courts are booked under the name Jean-Marc. This event is for intermediate and advanced players and not organised for novice players or beginners. Please make sure to bring the exact sum of 10 € in cash. The event is non-commercial. This sum covers the cost of the courts reserved. The organizer is not there to make money out of you. Ladies are encouraged to join. If anyone wants to drop out, they should do it on Saturday morning, not on Sunday the day of the meetup, another wise it would be too late to find a replacement in time or to cancel a court in time with reimbursement. If you don't do this, you will be asked by the organizer to reimburse your participation fee. If this happens too late then those who have cancelled after Saturday morning will have to cover the extra cost for reserving the courts. In the past meetups, it happened too many times that we were an oneven number and because of that all those present had less fun to play. If you don't show up without giving a written excuse in time, the first future participation will be cancelled and you will be asked to reimburse the participation fee. If it happens too many times you will not be able to participate anymore. In case if we are an uneven number of players, then the last player (except the host of course who has to collect the money) can leave or persuade other players to play with him or her. Of course if the last player leaves, then he or she doesn't have to pay the participation fee. If this player leaves, he or she will be added on a future event by the host or organizer in the participation list if the player is far away in the waiting list. This is the advantage of leaving on a voluntary basis;-). We operate on the principle of Fair Play as we do not have umpires or referees. Any disputes or disagreements over line calls or scores should be resolved immediately on the court and, when agreement is not possible, the point or game should be replayed. To be able to replay the game, 3 players need to agree on that without manipulation of the one who disputes an entire game, anotherwise injustice could occur where in the end possibly the biggest cheater could win... This situation applies also, if the host or the organizer is involved. When one of the players still doesn't accept this compromise, then it should be reported (meetup message by preference) to the organizer or host of the meetup event. One of the consequences could be that the first upcoming event could be cancelled by the organizer for the player who doesn't comply with the compromise to play the point or the game again. If the same player does that again for a second time, then the person will see 4 of his next tennis meetups cancelled. If this happens a third time with the same player, then the player in question will be banned from all future tennis meetups with an exclusion as a final result. Whenever there is a big problem, it should be reported as well to the organizer of the group so he can, if necessary, take actions to improve the situation for all the players. Please also note that if you are the first on the waiting list, you will automatically be moved up to the attendance list if someone pulls out. So if you are on the waiting list and see that you cannot attend, please also change your status to not going. If you would like to organize a meet up either this week or next week please get in touch with me, my name is Jean-Marc. It will depend on your initiatives to create more tennis meetups per week.

Welcome to Casual Boardgames, where we enjoy classic tabletop games and social deduction games while bonding over good food, drinks, and great conversations. 
We started this group to meet new people and make new friends, and bonding over games in a relaxed atmosphere is a great way to do that. We currently meet near route 23 and Polaris Parkway, and this is close to areas like Powell, Lewis Center, Worthington, and parts of Westerville and Columbus. 
Feel free to bring your own games or play one of the many games our members bring. If you are inexperienced, we will help you learn. 
Here are just a few examples of the kind of games we play. 
Tabletop/board games: Splendor, Catan, Azul, Dominion, 7 Wonders… 
Social deduction games: Code Names, Chameleon, Werewords… 
IMPORTANT: 
1. While we love playing a variety of games and competing, we are not just about the games. We interact and talk while playing, and this leads to a lot of laughter and fun. If you just want to compete and focus solely on the game, then this is probably not the group you are looking for. 
2. Many people join groups like this and never (or rarely) show up after weeks or months. If you join and never really come, we will eventually remove you from the group as a courtesy to our members. Why? Because limiting group conversations (on the app) to regular members makes communication and planning much easier. Also, while it may be rare, it protects members from people who join because they are interested in following a person instead of having a real interest in our group. If you get removed, it is just because you haven’t come, and we follow this protocol as a courtesy to our regular game players.
