Anyone up for playing board games?

Posted by markellman @markellman, Jun 20 2:54pm

Hello all! I am a new employee at Mayo Clinic as of this week, and I am wondering if any new (or not new) employees would be interested in getting together to play board games! Board games are a great and low-stress (unless you are competitive) way to get to know others, and I for one love making new friends. Reply to this message if you would be interested in playing some board games together in the next few weeks in Rochester!

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the New Employee Connections group.

I will be following this post. My start date is the 30th, but I will need a bit of time to get relocated and unpacked.

I am also a big time board gamer. My start date is in August and I would love to possibly start a gaming group if possible.

Honestly, I am not a big fan of board games but I am interested to meet new people especially if you are a sushi person

do you play or want to learn pickleball?

For board games, perhaps some time next week or the following would work for people! I am generally available after 4 pm on weekdays right now.

I never had the opportunity to play pickle ball

@whimsy @chaseb I love a game night! I know a game called Nertz which is a competitive fast paced solitaire that's super fun. I could teach everyone if we get a game night going.

I'm pretty busy/going out of town in the next 2 weeks, but mid/late August let me know!

@meaganmultz @whimsy @chaseb We could plan for next week sometime if it would work for all of you for board games! Perhaps there is a place downtown (somewhere on the sprawling Mayo campus) that could work for everyone? Any ideas of other places we could meet?
