Using the internet and mobile phones is not as beneficial as it seemed to us at the beginning of this invention. Spending too much time online can lead to mental-health problems such as depression, social phobia, alienation and the breakdown of social bonds. The internet can also be addictive, like alcohol, tobacco or other substances.

Therefore, the idea of meeting up and playing board games together may be the only remedy for the dangers arising from the internet.

The team at the Municipal Cultural and Sports Centre in Bolesławiec, based in Kruszyn, came up with this simple and brilliant idea. The entire event is very well organised. First of all, there are many interesting and very extensive games. Secondly, there are instructors who help players by explaining the rules. Thirdly, there is a tasty buffet, and for a small amount of money (bring cash), you can buy treats prepared by the Koło Gospodyń Wiejskich: chips, popcorn, waffles, cupcakes and more.

The next meeting will take place on 28 March at 6:00 p.m. in Żeliszów. We are going!
