Hi there,

I'm going to be down in Belmont this coming week (April 5-9) for some training. I'm a Utahn who loves playing board games with family and friends and tries to hit up gaming sessions at my local game store (gamenightgames.com) whenever I can. 

In looking for things to do in the evenings, I found your store and saw that you list an open gaming night on Wednesdays.

Not knowing the area and realizing that it's ~30+ minutes travel to Oakland, I figured I'd check in before "booking" my Wednesday plans.

It looks like you're having a con this weekend which may either increase or decrease your open gaming attendance…but generally speaking, is there usually a decent turnout of gamers on Wednesdays such that a newcomer/visitor could hop in on a session or two?

I'm a fan of trying out new games and have played many of the "classics" though I usually steer clear of the heavier/lengthier stuff.  Not really into wargames that last more than an hour (except for semi-annual games of Risk and/or Axis & Allies).  I'm on BGG as theokester.

I'll subscribe to this thread.  I may also call the store on Wednesday evening after dinner to get a feel for things.
