June Game and Coffee of the Month

Beat the summer heat and check out June’s game and coffee of the month!

10 Days in the USA is a great family game that combines classic Rack-o style game play with puzzle solving and geography skills! Each player is racing to complete a ten day journey across the United States by arranging their cards in a valid progression. Travel to adjacent states or use cars and planes to skip around the country in your adventure. 10 Days in the USA plays great at all player counts – two, three or four – and is easy to learn. It’s also a great game to sneak some geography skills in over the summer while still having a lot of fun. Designed by the same designer that created Ticket to Ride, this is a definite game to check out now that it is back in print. Stop by the cafe in East or the store in the Village today!

Our coffee of the month for June is The Birds and the Beans. This unique blend of Guatemala Rio Azul, Nicaragua and Ethiopia Sidama creates a unique flavor combination. It has tasting notes of Sweet Tea, Peach and Orange Zest. Yum! We will be roasting it all month at the cafe and selling retail bags for you to take home and enjoy as well.

Board Game Flea Market

We are pushing the sale back to 10 am to let the rain clear out. See you then!

Saturday, May 25th from 9 am to noon, we will be hosting our biannual board game flea market. We will have multiple community sellers on hand looking to move their loved board games to new homes! That home could be yours! Come on out, grab a coffee or pastry from the cafe, and then browse the deals waiting for you. (Rain – it looks like we should have a window to hold this event, if the weather gets dicey, check our social media and we’ll post updates!)

April Coffee of the Month

While playing a game at Game Point this month, be sure to have a steaming hot cup of our Coffee of the Month, Honduras Unwashed. From the Maroala region of Honduras, this coffee is a Bongo Premium Lot (meaning it is produced by one farmer instead of the entire coffee cooperative) and has notes of Strawberry and Dark Chocolate. It is also unwashed, meaning that the coffee is fermented out in the sun while still in the cherry instead of being pulped and fermented in holding tanks for two to three days. Being dried in the cherries imparts pronounced fruit notes, which you’ll be sure to notice when you try it out.
