Come join us for a fun night of gaming. Weather you are a veteran gamer or new to the hobby you are always welcome. If you own games you would like to play bring them along, we would be glad to give them a try. If you have no games that's ok, several of us bring games ranging from the silly like Flux and Poo, to the time tested Carcassonne and Settlers of Catan, to the more meaty games like Power Grid and Puerto Rico. Never heard of the games just mentioned, that's ok to. We play ma …

We meet every other Sunday at the Schaumburg Public Library, at 6pm. Our meetups usually last around 2 - 3 hours but the great thing about the meetup is the relationships with other developers that you will build. We are not just colleagues we are friends and are willing to help with feedback on projects and other needs that fellow indie …

Meet nearby Party Game Players! This group is designed for adults (sort-of) who enjoy games like Pictionery, Scattergories, Password, and Charades. Very easy rules and a nice, intimate setting where we keep score but nobody loses. Typically, we stick to PARTY games and not card or board games. It's more constant action for everybody, and, I believe, lends itself to more goofiness! MAKE TIME FOR FUN!!

This group has new organizers! Instead of letting this group disappear, Jeff Bergen of the Elgin gaming store The Gaming Goat has stepped up to be the organizer of this group. Since he also runs the store's Meetup group, he's leaving it to other gamers to manage it and maintain the meetups. As such, we're going to try and open the group up to announce any public rpg gatherings in or around Elgin. So, feel free to suggest new meetups to announce your own games, or update us on existing game …
We're a small group of regular, modest stakes poker players in the northern and western suburbs (e.g. Lincolnshire, Hawthorne Woods, Aurora, Bolingbrook) who get together roughly twice a month, the 1st and 3rd Fridays from 7pm until whenever (1am is usually the latest we go). We play a HORSE rotation, although Razz is occasionally replaced with "Jacks or Back". One dealer's choice game per round.

I started this group because I think so many of us have great things to offer but lack the opportunity or resources to give back to our families, neighbors, communities and country! If we put our heads, talents, imaginations and resources together, we can make a difference. No politics, no blaming, just cooperation amongst caring people. Have you wanted to volunteer, share an idea to improve something, can you make something that helps others in need, do you have a dream, are you looking to mak …

We're a group of about a dozen--sometimes more, sometimes less. We've been playing pick-up soccer games at the fields in Eldridge Park in Elmhurst, Illinois. We play from Noon to 1pm, every Tuesday and Thursday. As is, we only get out there if at least eight agree to play, determined day to day. Looking to get a more reliable crowd out there so we can play more consistently, and on the bigger fields, with fuller teams. If you join this group, be sure also to submit your e-mail address to me (cad …
Maybe your like me and sometimes feel like you want to get out and have some fun, some "me time", do something different. It's not that we don't have friends and family to hang out with, but let’s face it, sometimes they just don't want to get out of their comfort zone. If you would like to have a place to have fun, go out to breakfast, lunch or dinner, go on hikes, take day trips, have parties, go out dancing, go to wine tastings, have unique and interesting dining experiences, do volunteer w …
There are no upcoming Meetups.
We found that our life and social circle changed when we moved to the Chicago area and our children left home for college and to start their careers. We are starting this group to find new friends with similar interests who are also dealing with transition. The purpose of this group will be to promote social interaction and friendships through theater, dinning, barbecues, wine tastings, card/game nights, and other fun activities. This group will be made up of couples who believe in social justic …
