Metered street parking is free after 8 PM. **Due to events in Chinatown, parking lots and street parking are sometimes full, so please be prepared during major holidays and popular events.** **Transportation**: The LA Metro Chinatown Station services the A Line lightrail and is located a block away from our club. Several popular LA Metro bus lines serve Chinatown Plaza and will drop you off on the same block as our club. Some of the buses include: 4, 45, 81, 90, 94, DASH Lincoln Heights/Chinatown Clockwise and the DASH B. The $16 fee will be used to maintain the space and purchase more mahjong equipment.

Leafy Fall Gaming

Hey party people! Come hit up Paper Hero's for a chill afternoon of board games with East Valley Board Games. Also, BUNDLE UP, as it can get quite chilly in our corner of the store. Layers are good. The gaming details: Attendance: This is a drop-in event, so you don’t have to stay the whole time. Come for an hour, come for two hours, show up late, leave early. As long as you clean up any mess that you leave, you're good with us and the wonderful store runners, Andrew and Zoey. NOTE: It is advisable that the best way to get in on a game without waiting is to come at the beginning of the event at 2pm. Otherwise you might have to wait for a game to end and another to begin. Parking: Paper Heroes is located in a strip mall on the northwest corner of Burbank Blvd. and Hazeltine Ave. in Sherman Oaks. No, we don't know why Meetup lists the city as Los Angeles and not Sherman Oaks. There are a few parking spaces in the small shopping center, and we would suggest looking for street parking as well. Since it's Sunday, meters will be free. **Important note: It's been brought to our attention that there are a few 1 hour parking signs around the venue, so as always, check parking signs carefully so you don't get a visit from a parking fairy.** We have had good luck parking on the east side of Hazeltine, just south of Burbank. Food: Outside food and drink is allowed in. We just ask as always that you are careful so as not to spill. There's a coffee shop next door, Nat's Early Bite, which is open until 3pm. Just please be careful and don’t spill food or drink on games, or you’ll be expected to replace them, which we think is a fair policy. Also, there are some game mats placed on some tables around the stores with signs asking patrons to not place food or drink on top of them. PLEASE RESPECT THIS RULE. Don't be a jerk. Guests: Guests are great! Just be sure to note it in your RSVP, and if your guests' plans change, please update your RSVP. Please understand that you are responsible for making sure that your guests spend at least $5 at Paper Heroes to support the business. More info on that in a second. Store policy: PH is asking that every person who attends our events makes at least 1 purchase or purchases $5 store credit to use in the future (the store keeps an account for you). Snacks and drinks can be part of this, but they're not ideal. It's a gaming store (also comic books!) after all (and was affected by the pandemic). What we like to do is put aside a list of games we want and buy or order them from PH, rather than get them from Amazon (doesn't Jeff Bozo have enough of our money?) The store runners and East Valley Board Games organizers (Felicity, Joe, and Alan) will remind you at the event. Games: Feel free to bring your own games, or just play the ones that others bring. There's always a healthy selection of strategy games, word games, party games, and so on.

East Valley Board Games is super excited about our 12th *annual Halloween event! (*Our numbers are off bc we had to skip a year because of Covid, blah blah blah.) We will have board games, candy, and a costume contest! We'll have a prize for our 1st place favorite costume. If this all sounds creepily cool in the ghastliest of ways, get your bony behinds down to Paper Hero's for some Halloween gaming. Andrew and the PH crew are once again graciously opening their doors to us for gaming! Costume Contest---Our Halloween gaming event is from 2pm to 6pm and as we always say, drop in whenever. However, if you plan to participate in the costume contest, you will need to be in our room at 4pm for voting. We will be announcing the top 3 vote-getters around 4:15. Anyone who attends the Halloween gaming event can vote on the winners. You don't have to come in costume, but we STRONGLY encourage it, because um, FUN.
