Board game meetup hosting in Kenya

Hosted board-game meetups with beginner orientation

A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE

Fictional launch: host a two-hour board-game evening for twelve adults at a café, using three tables of four players. Include a welcome, edition-specific rules teaching and a closing round; food and drink are purchased directly from the café. Use lawfully obtained games and original promotional artwork. This is a hosted recreation session, not a sanctioned tournament or an authorised publisher event.
