Well, our first day of 'soft' opening is behind us. We had a great game night with about 40 people, invited through
Facebook and our
meet-up page. We also had several people from the neighbourhood who just stopped in to check out what we're doing. A few even stayed on to play a few games.
Kudos to the staff who were thrown into the deep end on the very first day. But they rallied, and had everything running smoothly shortly after we got started.
We'll be open on a limited basis for the first month or so while we finish up the decorations, play with the menu, and familiarise ourselves with the systems. So, if you'd like to join us for summertime gaming, here are the hours:
Here are a few pictures of the space and the event to tide you over until tuesday:
