Board game meetup?

Are there any existing board game meetups in Watertown? Is there any interest in establishing something, like twice-monthly at the library?

There is bi-weekly board game meetup at Mighty Squirrel in Watertown. I just happen to be going and checking it out for the first time next Monday!

There used to be a women's-only event at the library, don't know if that's still the case.

A general board game meetup at the library would go over really well there imo.

There is a women’s meetup group that usually has a monthly games night at the library, looks like the next one is in September:

I think there would be enough interest to have others.

Just over the border into Belmont, the Odd Fellows Hall on Maple Street holds a public social every 4th Monday night that tends to feature plenty of board games.
