We understand how stressful the past years have been, which is why we’d like to continue providing you with opportunities to let it all out in a fun, amicable, relaxed environment, and what better way than by playing board games, or card games, and sharing with new friends? One of the things we missed the most was the spontaneity and no one feels like registering anymore, we get it! However, since we will be providing refreshments (juice, coffee, tea, hot cocoa) and snacks, we’d like to have an idea of how many people to expect so we can plan accordingly. Having said this, please take a minute to register here! Feel free to bring along a friend, classmate, or partner.
We have two dozens of new games for you to explore and enjoy, most of them in English (or that can be played in any language) and a good amount in French as well, for the intrepid ones that would like to practice their French skills.
