Are you tired of hosting Commander night all the time? We've got you covered!

Every Monday at 7pm, we will have tables set aside just for Magic. Don't have a full group? No worries! We will have a sign up sheet to fill up tables that still need players.

No preregistration needed! Just swing by and get your name on the list or grab an open table if your group is ready to go.

Come play American Mahjong at the library and connect with community! Experienced players welcome are invited to join our fun and friendly group. Be sure to bring your current National Mah Jongg League cards.

Welcome, adventurers! Adventurers League is open-play Dungeons and Dragons. No matter your experience level, we encourage you to sign up for a session! AL is designed for you to be able to join any session without needing the context of a full campaign. It's a great way to get started if you're new, or to fit some more DND into your life amidst your regular campaigns if you're more experienced. If you’re new, please check out our free Learn to Play DND table! This event is aimed at ages 15 and up, or 12-14 with a guardian attending. This event will use the 2024 Player's Handbook rules. Please refresh yourself on the AL Player's Guide before attending so the game can launch in a timely manner. Please create a Tier One character beforehand. We highly encourage you sign up in advance. If you have any questions, reach out to @Mox_Peter in our Discord server! Not in our Discord server? Click here to join! Time: Every Tuesday, 6:00pm-10:00pm Entry Fee: $18 Player Cap: 7 **Due to high demand for our RPG tables, refunds will not be given for cancellations within 24 hours of the listed start time**
