Games & Cookies night

Games & Cookies night

Do you long for some relaxation after the stressful first period? Look no further, because the Gaming Committee and the Grandma Club are organizing the Games & Cookies night on the 28th of October! So join us at the Village Living Room for a chill evening with fresh cookies, games and great company! 🍪🎮

At the event, you'll find piles of board and card games, and the guild's Nintendo Switch with Smash Ultimate and Mario Kart! 💥🕹

When the sugar cravings hit, satisfy them by baking some delicious cookies! There will be many different fillings to choose from - assemble your dream cookie! 😋 The Grandma Club will take care of all the equipment and ingredients needed for the cookie baking, so the only thing you need to bring is yourself (and a box for the cookies if you want to take them home)!

The sign-up is meant for estimating the amount of cookie ingredients needed, and it isn't mandatory or binding. So sign up, if you want cookies! We can also take allergies, diets and filling-wishes into consideration, if you write them in the sign-up!
