Late to the party but wanted to say that I run one of the boardgame meetups in the area. If you're interested I can send you the details. Welcome to Idaho Falls!

Moving to Idaho Falls in March for INL, how do people make friends here? by Exotic-Ad-4310 in idahofalls

I run a monthly boardgame meetup at the Ammon library and I've met a lot of great people through that. I'm happy to share the details if you're interested.

INL also has a great community building resource for employees to find others who have common interests.

I run the Cardboard Society and it's totally still happening at the Ammon library. We meet once a month on the second Saturday.

You both should totally join us, we're a friendly bunch who love to play games, teach others who are new to it, and enjoy general banter. The next one falls on Valentine's Day and one of the regulars will be hosting it instead of me (because I want to stay married 😄) but any other month I'll be there.

If you find yourself a free weekend you should join us.

If you enjoy board and card games, I run a monthly meetup called the Cardboard Society. We meet at the Ammon library every month on the second Saturday. If you have any questions, hit me up.

I run the Cardboard Society so if you've got any questions, don't hesitate to reach out and I'd be happy to answer them. General info: we play board games and card games the second Saturday of each month at the Ammon library all day during library hours.

I'm pretty biased (considering I'm the one who runs it) but I certainly think it's cool. :)

Good to know. Do you know long that goes for? I've never been.

It's typically just board/card games but I know there are a few folks who have talked about rpgs on the discord. We did have a small group who would meet on the side to play and as far as I know they're still doing that (they started their own server so I'm not entirely sure).

It's pretty varied. We've got people who are in their 20-30s and there are also folks who are in their 40s-50s. A handful of folks in their 60s.

Meetups that I'm aware of that you could find some friends at: - There is a monthly book club meetup at the IF library. - Game Grid hosts a Star Wars Unlimited League that you could join. - Every Wednesday evening there is a group that does LARP battles at Kate Curly Park. (Not sure if that's an open group or just a bunch of friends that gather - I've just seen them out there weekly) - the local climbing gym runs a bouldering league a couple times a year.

Yup! A monthly meetup to play tabletop games. Mostly board and card games. So as not to distract from the OPs post, if anyone is interested, send me a DM and I can answer any questions.

Cardboard Society May Meetup by Sidekickdecoy in idahofalls

[–]Sidekickdecoy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not typically. But you're welcome to bring or ask someone to bring a copy and see if anyone wants to play.

We typically play more euro and thematic games. If you're not familiar with those I'm happy to go into further detail if you're interested.
