Aurora Board Game Circle

Aurora Board Game Circle is a relaxed, welcoming group for adults (18+) in the Aurora, Colorado area.

This group is just getting off the ground. I have reserved a meeting room in a library for the first meeting on Saturday, July 26th - see the details below.

About me: My name is Beth, and I’m a woman in my 50’s who grew up here in Aurora. I’ve been wanting to find a suitable board game group that meets close enough to where I live, and is not held in a bar. I could not locate something that suited me, so I decided to start one. :)

Age range for group: Adults 18+.

Meeting location(s) in general: Reserved meeting rooms in libraries, and possibly other non-commercial locations like fire stations later, depending on preference and availability.

Style of game: Word games, board games, card games. Ideally things that can be finished in one session.

Some examples of games that I am envisioning:
  • Scrabble
  • Boggle
  • Cathedral
  • Jackpot Yahtzee
  • Backgammon
  • Cribbage
  • Canasta
  • Set

But of course the games we end up playing will depend on the participants - what people bring, and what games they like.

Overall vibe: Chill and fairly quiet.
