Edinburg Board Game library is on the move! After the closure of the Cargo Bike Hub, we’re thrilled to announce our new home at Southside Community Centre. Starting in early April, you can once again visit us during our usual Thursday evening slot, 6–8 PM, in Room 2 of this fantastic venue.
The new space comes with plenty of perks—goodbye to basement stairs, hello to a cozy, heated room with more space for gaming!
As with any change, there are adjustments. Some games will be stored offsite due to space limitations, but we’re committed to making as many available as possible. Additionally, the library will take a summer break in August while the community centre serves as a Fringe Festival venue.
We’re immensely grateful to Southside Community Centre for welcoming us with open arms. We can’t wait to settle in, and we’ll send another update with a confirmed reopening date soon. Stay tuned for more exciting developments and opportunities to connect!
