The 27th is our After Holiday Holiday Party!

What does that mean? It means we'll be having our annual white elephant gift exchange!

Bring a gift to share; something you would want to take home. Try to limit your spending to $20 per gift. It doesn't have to be brand new; got some collectibles that just don't fit your collection anymore? Figures? Comics? Games?

If you can, bring multiple gifts. I want everyone to be able to participate and will be bringing extras myself.

If you can't contribute, please don't let that keep you away! We want everyone to participate and have something cool to take home.

I love you all and hope to see @everyone there!

I'm looking forward to this. A cool character and more of Vincent D'Onofrio as Kingpin!

Thank you!

Geekmas was a ton of fun!

A big part of that was all the people who contributed! Thank you Michelle Beck, Michael Beck, Jess Martins, David Monachino, John Considine, Jay Barsenas, Angela Canon, Cody Canon, William Helm, and all those that helped with setup, running activities, and cleanup!

We played fun games, made fun shirts, sang ridiculous songs, and ate some great food! Some of you have some incredible voices! Thank you for putting up with my rendition of Ninja Rap, lol.

Thank you for making Geekmas another fun gathering. We will see you on January 13th for the first Game and Art night of 2024!

During every Monthly Meetup, we setup a Geek swap table. If you have stuff you don't need anymore, but think a fellow Geek would appreciate it, this is the place to share. 

Everything put on the swap table is free, first come, first served. Bring what you want to donate, take what you want, free of charge.

This month, I will be bringing toys, books, comics, movies, t-shirts, and more. 

(If you have stuff that you want to sell, look up GBG Promenade)

So join me in the season of giving and pass on some of the cool stuff that just doesn't have a spot in your place anymore!

We look forward to seeing you there!

We want to celebrate you! We are bringing back Birthday Celebrations at our Monthly Meetups. And we are planning new ways to step it up, making your celebration something special!

So, if you have a birthday in December, please let us know in the comments. Come to our Monthly Meetup on December 30th and let us celebrate you!

5pm at St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Sparks.

We look forward to seeing you there!

We will be doing Holiday Karaoke at this month's meetup!

Sing your favorite holiday tune, whether Christmas, Hannukah, New Years, or something else, it's all welcome!

I personally like the offbeat stuff, parodies, unexpected mashups, and things that work way better than they should! I’ll probably be singing "The Night Santa Went Crazy" by Weird Al. I also recently found an awesome song by Lil Jon, "All I Really Want for Christmas", check it out: https://youtu.be/L0r6ocwGnMg?si=YQ46YFvygfN0PakE

What's your favorite offbeat holiday song? What do you plan to sing this month? Let me know in the comments!

Happy Holidays and may the Force be with you!

Come celebrate the holidays with us!

We'll have holiday themed games, holiday crafting (make your own ugly sweater or t-shirt), holiday themed music, holiday themed funny videos, and we'll be celebrating December birthdays!

Our monthly meetups are a little business and a lot of fun. Friendly for all types of Geeks: Nerds, introverts, neurodiverse, and everyone in between. Friends, food, games, and more. All ages are welcome!

We will do a potluck, please bring at least a dish to share. Keep an eye out for a sign up post in the Facebook event page.

Monthly meetings are free to attend, but a $5 donation is  suggested and greatly appreciated. Funds will be used for future events and activities.

Board games will be available to play. Feel free to bring games to play. Games are a great way to meet and get to know fellow Geeks. 

4:00-5:00 Meeting setup

5:00-9:00 Games and fun

9:00-10:00 Cleanup

Feel free to share ideas for this or any future meetings.

Also, PLEASE, please, please, share the meeting, invite your friends, and bring as many guests as you wish.

We look forward to seeing you all there!

May the Force be with you. 

Live long and prosper.

Our Monthly Game and Art Nights are the Second Saturday of every month, that's today!

I'm heading out to pick up supplies and should be at the church about 4pm. I always appreciate help setting up and many hand make for light work, so please come early if you can.

Each month we meet to play tabletop games. This can include card games (Magic, Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh, etc.), board games (Settlers of Catan, Monopoly, Chess, etc.), and roleplaying games (Dungeons & Dragons, Pathfinder, etc.)

There are lots of games on hand or you can bring your own.

Not feeling like gaming? How about some arts and crafts? Bring your sketchbook, your canvas, your clay, your beads, or whatever kind of art you create, and hang out with other artists. Learn new tips and tricks, bounce ideas, and get helpful feedback.

Have fun, make friends, and Geek out!

We have lots of tables and everyone is welcome!

There will be a potluck. Please bring a dish to share if you can.

Game nights are free to attend, but donations are greatly appreciated.
