Board at the Library: Games for Grown-ups: This Month's Game - Three Men's Morris In-Person
History – This game was played in ancient Egypt. One of these game boards was found cut into a roofing slab at the temple at Kurna in Egypt [c. 1400-1333 B.C.] Three Men’s Morris was very popular in the 14th century. Game boards have been found in cathedrals carved into cloister seats by monks. Washington’s soldiers could have easily drawn a board in the dirt and used rocks or nuts for playing pieces.
This is an easy game to learn. It’s quick and simple, but still challenging. Take a couple minutes to play a piece of history.

This group is for adults who love board games to come together to enjoy playing games and enjoy light refreshments. We'll have a different game each month, alternating between new and "old school" board games.
