Just out of the WSB inbox, from Julie Enevoldsen of Friends of Southwest Branch Library:

Friends of Southwest Branch Library invite all ages of board game enthusiasts, casual players, and anyone interested in learning a board game to our next two Board Game Sunday Afternoons, December 6th and January 10th, from 1:00 to 4:30 p.m. in the meeting room upstairs at the branch (9010 35th Ave. S.W.).

Members of the Friends plan to bring a variety of board games and will be available to assist with learning to play them. (Examples? At our last Board Game Afternoon, people played a Catan game, a Ticket to Ride game, and a couple of word games and two-person strategy games.) If you have a board game you’d like to play or teach, please feel free to bring it.

Families with children old enough to enjoy board games are welcome; we request that parents consider their child(ren)’s temperament in deciding whether they would enjoy this event, and plan to attend with their child(ren). We are unable to provide child care for this event.

To let us know you’ll be attending, what games you’d like to play, learn, or bring, or for questions, please contact us at swt-friends@wlonk.com. Drop-ins are welcome, but we can plan better if we know you’re coming!

This event is sponsored by the Friends of Southwest Branch Library – which had a pilot Board Game Afternoon earlier this fall.
