Shreveport Game Night is on Holiday
until after the first of January/2010
We will
everyone a great and merry
Christmas and look forward to getting together
again soon.
*************************************
Are you bored on Wednesday Nights?
Come downtown to the
Robinson Film Center and join a group of people who have found the
answer to the Wednesday night blues. We're a small core group
that meets every Wednesday night at the Robinson
Film Center in downtown Shreveport to play "traditional" card and board games,
often referred to as "party games".
It's something to do in Shreveport, and it's FREE!
There is no charge to join our group. We are open to new, like
minded players and invite you to join us on Wednesdays. As a
group, we are not your typical "gamer" group in that our members are
a cross section of the community, who vary in ages and have bonded
together for the primary purpose of just having fun, in a laid back,
fun environment. The game we play is not as important as the
conversation, and the friends that we make. Our skill levels
vary widely and if you are a casual player, just looking to expand
your circle of friends, we think you will feel at home in our group.
Laughter is a huge part of the chemistry of the game.
If
you would like to join our group, we invite you to come down to the
Robinson Film Center on Wednesdays at 7:00 PM. We usually play
until 8:30-9:00 PM, the deciding factor being when people have to
leave. Please note that child care is not provided and this is
intended to be an Adult setting, although older teens are
welcome.
Join our email group and we'll send you reminders of our Game Day or
in the event a change in plans occurs, you'll get notified.
You can sign up below. If you have any questions, a contact
email is listed near the bottom of this page.
Please note that no outside food or beverage may be brought into the
center. There is food and drink inside. Free Parking is available on the curb and in near by
parking lots after 5:00 pm. See the map below.
We are not connected with the Robinson Film Center, but we meet
there on the Mezzanine level inside the building beginning at 7:00
PM on Wednesdays. Click on the Robinson Film Logo below to go
to the Film Center's official website, where you can explore what's
offered in the Abby Singer's Bistro and Coffee Grind Cafe' as
well as discover what's playing in their theaters.
GAMES WE PLAY:
Our group is typically playing traditional card and board games.
We've decided not to play the type of strategy games that are
typically only sold in the gamer stores or online and sometimes
referred to "Modern Euro Strategy Games" and instead focused
our group on the typical games that you and your family might find
in department stores and in your closet. As a matter of
information, there is a Strategy Game group that meets on another
night at a local pizza parlor if you are interested in playing the
Euro Strategy Games.
Our
focus is on easy to play, more widely known games that you and your
family might typically play at home, as we are not "real gamers",
just out for a fun evening.
Some of the games that
we have played, or will play at some point are listed below,
although this is not an complete list. If you have a game that
you would like to introduce to our group, you are welcome to suggest
it and we will consider adding it to our playlist. The focus
is as much the friendship as it is the game. We want to have
fun, and meet new people!
