Bondi Board Games - ECBG Friday Meetup

We are ECBG, the Eastern Community Boardgame Group and we meet every Friday at 7pm. Come join us to experience lots of fun with board games, card games, social deduction games and more! We're a friendly group with a diverse group of attendees and welcome everyone to participate. Feel free to come along whether you're a seasoned veteran or just want to try out the hobby. We have lots of people that bring games along and they're all happy to teach games to new players. Bring your own games if you like too, announce the game you wish to run and you'll find players within our group. If you're new, don't worry about lack of numbers in prior attendance lists, we typically have 20-35 players each week. Attendance at our meetups is free, but Easts Club do require you to sign in to enter the club so valid ID is required. Although optional, if you start to attend our free events regularly, you may wish to consider joining Easts as a member in which case there is a small per year membership fee (under $10) to Easts and comes with perks and discounts. You can inquire further on this with Easts direct as you enter the club. We generally meet in the auditorium area next to Artie's Bar on Level 1. Sometimes when there is an event on, we might be in Artie's Bar itself instead. Club staff should be able to direct you to us if you're lost. Just ask where the Free Board Gaming Group is located known as ECBG. Note there is a smaller project group that operate within Easts on a Friday night as well, that charge an attendance fee so be clear you're looking for the free community boardgames group ECBG and you'll find us. See you there!

A wine, a beer, something non-alcoholic, and you're set for the night. **If money's tight, just show up. We'd rather have you in the room.** **External food is welcome.** For the after-work crowd, we often end up eating together anyway. Lisa and Saxon know the collection inside out. Tell them what you're after, something fast and social, a deep strategy game, or you've never touched a board game in your life, and you'll be sorted in five minutes. We've got titles that'll become new favourites and rare gems for the dedicated gamers. The room fills up with people who came once and never stopped coming back. Solo, with friends, or somewhere in between, it works either way. Come find out why. 🎲 Come find out why. **🎲 What's on the table** **Party & social** Coyote · Exploding Kittens · Ghost Court · Here to Slay · Monikers · Munchkin · No Ducks Given · Sushi Go · Telestrations · Trolley Problem · Uno: No Mercy · A Fake Artist Goes to New York **Social deduction** Blood on the Clocktower · Codenames · Coup **Strategy** Arcs · Carcassonne · Catan · Railroads · Sidereal Confluence · Ticket to Ride: Europe **Mystery & investigation** Awkward Guests · Sherlock Holmes: Consulting Detective · This Game is Killer: Frozen Horrors **Co-op** Magic Maze · Pandemic Legacy · Puzzle Box **Team** Captain Sonar **Classics** Cards · Chess · Scrabble *Want something specific?

Inner West Gamers Collective - Free Event

Hi Everyone! We meet every Thursday at Club Ashfield: 1-11 Charlotte St, Ashfield. Our origin started off many years ago at the halls of a church in Enfield.

We are still championing to welcome all those that are interested in gaming whether you’re new to board gaming or an eventual board gaming elitist, all are welcome! **Venue:** 1-11 Charlotte St, Ashfield. If coming via train the Club is located right out of Ashfield Train Station, Station St exit. There are free road side unlimited parking after 6pm.

There will always be many and wide range of games (easy, accessible, complex, big, small, long, short, differing genre) to choose from on the night and again all experience levels are welcome to join in and sit in on one of our many tables. **Link to our Aftergame group, where some of us pre-plan and organise weekly games:** https://app.aftergame.co/groups/6ddb7eeb-9728-42e2-ab8f-8b517e5ac147?invite=true Usual play start time is 7pm but be encouraged to arrive earlier (6pm on-wards) like many of us do to have a meal, play some smaller games and general chit-chat filling the time until our official start. We usually finish close to 12am. Come along, grab a drink, order some food, and play some games! **Host' Note:** As the function space we're occupying is given to us in-kind (hiring costs waived) by the Club's generosity and goodwill so that I could continue to keep this event free of charge. I would like to in-kind encourage everyone that attends to consider purchasing a meal/drink to compensate for the Club's kindness in allowing us to use this function space freely on a weekly basis! Please also consider cleaning up after yourselves to lessen the labour of the staffs on the night as well as for your fellow gamers that may be looking to share games on your table! **Lastly:** At the event, if any attendees have any issues with the club's foods, drinks and services, please approach me (Ben) directly with the problem before all else. **Conditions of the Club:** 1\. Club will have their regular bookings in the adjacent room\, therefore noise may be a factor for both parties\. Please be respectful and mindful\. 2\. PLEASE RESPECT THE STRICT CLUB RULES THAT NO FOOD OR BEVERAGES ARE ALLOWED TO BE BROUGHT INTO THE CLUB\. 3\.
