Below are the details for our next meeting!

Next Meeting: Monday July 5th 6:30PM – 10:00PM. (If attendance keeps on increasing we will be switching to bi-weekly soon!)

Last Meeting we got to play: Railways of Mexico, Last Night on Earth, Small World, Space Dealer, Zombie Dice, Coliseum, Catacombs, and a whole lot of Neuroshima Hex!

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.

Some Pics from last week!

What’s a Silly Bandz,’ you may ask yourself (pausing slightly afterwards to check if your grammar is correct.) Well let me tell you, these things are quite silly but in the best way possible. They are shaped rubber band(z)! These bandz come in the shapes of princess stuff, western stuff, rock ‘n’ roll stuff, the alphabet, underwater animals and so on. They’re really heating up in the states so we figured we’d bring them in to show everyone! Come have a look, ’cause when your kid asks for one, you’ll have a one-up on them and actually know what a Silly Bandz is.

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

Available for purchase here!

	Quatchi™ Action Figure Vinyl Figure Height: 3.5″ Quatchi is one of the official olympic mascots of the games. He’s a friendly, fully poseable sasquatch with moveable arms, hands, and legs. While he’s shy and often hangs out in forests, Quatchi will happily join you in your travels to new places. He’s also a big hockey fan and loves to play goalie… though his toy-sized figure isn’t quite big enough to fill a hockey net.
	Miga™ Action Figure Vinyl Figure Height: 2.25″ Miga is one of the official olympic mascots of the games. She’s a playable sea bear figure with moveable fin-arms and a swivelling head. Just what are sea bears? They’re orca whales that turn into bears when they come onto land. But Miga got stuck so she’s now part orca and part bear! Be sure to bring Miga along if you’re going surfing, snowboarding, or doing anything fun and exciting!
	Sumi™ Action Figure Vinyl Figure Height: 2.85″ Sumi is the official paralympic mascot of the games. He’s an animal spirit figure with furry legs that turn and and a head that swivels. As you can see from his action figure Sumi is quite an unique critter. He wears the hat of the orca whale, has the wings of the thunderbird and the furry legs of the black bear. Sumi loves the outdoors, alpine skiing, and flying over the mountains with his friends on his back.
	Bonus Mukmuk™Action Figure* Vinyl Figure Height: 1.5″ Mukmuk is the much loved sidekick to the mascots, and is a marmot who lives on Vancouver Island. While he’s the smallest figure, he loves to eat and cheer his heart out. Bring Mukmuk with you to the games to help you cheer! Mukmuk comes with a special foam finger accessory to cheer all the athletes at the Vancouver 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games. *Mukmuk is exclusive to the Collector’s Set, and is not available individually*
