What we’re about
Welcome! This group is for those interested in playing board and tabletop games. Events will be held at a private home near County Center, Woodbridge, VA (in Prince William County). Board games are my hobby and I started this group to play more games. If you are sociable, respectful, and like modern board games (or want to learn) then this group is possibly for you.
Please peruse the Past Events or Photos to get a sense of the types of games played. Anyone is welcome to suggest or bring games to play.
Upcoming events (4+)
See all- THE HOBBY: Saturday Night MOVIE13043 Qualls Ln, Woodbridge, VA
SPECIAL MOVIE EDITION of Saturday Night Board Games for up to 9 viewers (including me).
For this Meetup, we will watch the new documentary, The Hobby: Tales from the Tabletop (Trailer).
In addition to my dedicated gaming space, I also have an adjacent home theater / media room (with 4K UHD projector, Dolby Atmos sound, and reclining seats) where we will view the documentary, which has a run-time of 1h 32m. We will start viewing at ~6:15pm. My theater seats a maximum of 9 viewers, so this special MOVIE EDITION of game night will be limited to 9 viewers (including me).
There will be a separate Meetup for just games, starting at 8:00pm: PLEASE RSVP for Saturday Night Board Games separately, if you plan to stay for games starting at 8:00pm. These events are separate, so you are not required to stay for games, but I can only accommodate 12 players (including me). Consequently, if you are not registered for the game night portion of the evening starting at 8:00pm, you may be required to leave after the movie.
Attendees (viewers) should be sociable and respectful. I'll have a selection of light snacks and beverages available, but please feel free to bring snacks and/or drinks to share. Alcohol: If you're legally permitted, then you can, but keep it reasonable and light.
There is no smoking or vaping on the property and if you have a pet allergy, please be advised that we have three dogs (two miniature poodles and a mini goldendoodle) in the home. Attendees should also be capable of walking down/up at least 15 stairs to enter/exit the game room.
You may park along the street or in the driveway, but do not block access to the third garage on the right.
