Mission: Speed cards and conversation

For this installment of C&C in Boston, we're going to do something a little different.

Your mission, if you chose to accept it, will be to play cards with each person and learn at least one new fact about each person that attends!

All too often at these events, it's easy to play cards for 3 hours with only one group of people, and not get to converse and play cards with everyone. So to circumvent this problem, we will be having speed rounds. This will be an open card game event, but the games need to be short games, that can be finished in about 20 minutes. We will play and converse in small groups, 2-5 players. After about 30 minutes, I will make an announcement, and everyone will get up and find new partners to play with. While in the groups, make sure you learn something new about each of the other members in that group. By the end of the evening, everyone should have played with everyone else at least once and learned something new!

I have invited the members of Girls just want to have FUN to this event as well.

This message will self destruct in 5 seconds!

    Can we bring board games, or it is just cards?

    Board games usually take more than 20 minutes to play, so I thought it should only be cards. But if people have board games that can be played in 20 minutes, you're welcome to bring them.
