What we’re about
The Gleeful Meeple are a group of social people who want to meet new friends and play games with them. New to board games? No problem. We're happy to teach. Our events can and may pop up just about anywhere (primarily local breweries, cool huh?) Our most popular events are board gaming events, where all attendees are welcome to bring their favorite games to play with us and our hosts will bring a bag of their own for you to enjoy as well. We may be board game group, but we’re so much more. We host tabletop RPG events, trivia nights, escape games, kickball, disc golf, and always looking for new ways to play.
All ages are welcome and encouraged, families included.
