CONNECT: Game Night
An easy and fun way to get together with friends (or to make new ones) is to host a game night. I’ve hosted and attended many of these casual evenings and I love the tradition.
This is a perfect “come-as-you-are” kind of gathering that’s low-key and adaptable to large or small groups, and all ages. It doesn’t have to be everyone, all together, playing the same game. People can scatter throughout the rooms, joining different groups of players or simply visit.
Invite people to bring their own favorite games and some yummy treats. The games will facilitate conversation and help bring people together in an easy and natural way.
Do you have a lot of neighbors who you’d like to get to know? Or maybe you’d like to introduce some different friend groups to each other? Game night is a great way to facilitate this.

Game night doesn’t require a complicated menu. A buffet style set-up will allow people to come and go as they please. Keeping it potluck style will make it even easier. As party host, you might think about providing something to drink, a healthy side, a treat, and something more hearty/savory. I’ve provided a few ideas in the video above.
For an introvert, like me, who also loves people, hosting parties is ideal. I like being able to make things special for my friends, while at the same time, having ready excuses to pull away when I need, to prepare food or do whatever else is needed.
