Barrhaven Board Game Nights
Thanks to everybody who came and had fun at our last meeting. Also a big thank you to Marquis and Game Summit for bringing some games including Catan 3D Collector’s Edition for everyone to try out.

Next Meeting: Monday June 7th 6:30PM – 10:00PM.

We are hoping to play: Power Grid, Puerto Rico, Battle Lore,
Mystery Express, Small World, Manhattan, Chaos in the Old World and many more options available.

It looks like Steve might be bringing Battle Lore for this one, so for those of you who want to try it should be available this time.

The Setup: Again we will have 4 large tables setup with potential seating for 16-20 people indoors. As the warm summer nights are on the horizon, we are considering a partially outdoor setup involving gazebos/lights for some more tables at a future meeting to accommodate larger numbers of people.

Food / Drink: We have cold cans of pop and water bottles available for $1.00 each and microwave popcorn available for $2.00 and assorted candy/gum for those who don’t want to bring their own. (Please refrain from snacks that could be damaging to the board games like cheetos etc.) Crackers, chips, cookies, veggies etc are fine.

One final note: While we want as many people to play the games they want to play as possible, it does mean we may not have either enough interest or players to play certain games. If you come with the intention of playing a specific game, please do not be discouraged if we do not play it this time. We want everyone to have an open mind about trying new games they haven’t played before.

Hope to see you all There!

Please RSVP and let us know any questions/suggestions you might have in this thread.

Barrhaven Board Game Night – Monday April 12th!

Thursday, April 8th, 2010

Alright guys! We’ve been promising a board game night for a while now and we finally deliver! Next Monday will be the trial run of our Barrhaven Board Game Night! So if you’re looking to play a board game next week, Toys on Fire’s the place to do it.

Our first night will be this coming Monday, April 12th at 6:30 – 10:00 PM. (We are extending our store hours later for this night)

Games: We are thinking of setting up 3 8-foot tables so we want to run 1 or 2 larger games and 2 medium sized games with fillers inbetween. We have lots of games to choose from, our rentals are available for play and some others that the staff will bring. This will be a very open format event and you are welcome to come with your friends and play as you like. You are also welcome to bring one of your own games, and even teach it to others if you would like. Please let us know which games you would like to see so we can make sure we have all the rules down ahead of time.

We’ll have a bunch of board games here for people to try out, including:

- Days of Wonder’s Ticket to Ride Europe
- Days of Wonder’s Mystery Express
- Eagle Games’ Railways of the World
- Z-Man Games’ Neuroshima Hex
- Flying Frog’s Last Night on Earth

Food / Drink: As this is taking place in our store there can’t be any form of alcohol. However, we do have cold cans of pop available for $1.00 each and microwave popcorn available for $2.00 for those who don’t want to bring their own. (Please refrain from snacks that could be damaging to the board games like cheetos etc.) Crackers, chips, cookies, veggies etc are fine.

If you would like to request we bring a game, feel free to shoot us an e-mail and we’ll see if we can oblige you.

One final note: While we want as many people to play the games they want to play as possible, it does mean we may not have either enough interest or players to play certain games. If you come with the intention of playing a specific game, please do not be discouraged if we do not play it this time. We want everyone to have an open mind about trying new games they haven’t played before.

Hope to see you all There!

-Steve, Gray & Chris
