13 in attendance for Wednesday October 13, 2021 at Purple Dragon Games – semi-officially deemed the ‘2021 Donut Doubleheader celebration’…..with Sean crowned as Donut King (with the DD Munchkins to prove it) – Emily and Tim qualified for the Dollars to Donuts grand finale. First visit from Ryn.

Our table leaders are hard at play learning the rules to close to a dozen recent game releases. We will continue teaching a healthy balance between classic games from the past 25+ years and recent gaming releases.  Kindly reward their dedication by clearly RSVP-ing (preferably by using our MeetUps group) so we can plan for the anticipated attendance.

We are striving to make the most of the 4 hours that Purple Dragon games allow for our continued use and enjoyment. So expect more silly openers to occupy those who arrive early or by 6 PM until all arrive – instead of milling around and waiting.
