Kickoff Meeting Recap

by Dallas SWE on in Special Events

Dallas SWE had its first kickoff event of FY22 in Cottonwood Park in Richardson on Saturday, October 9th. We got to mingle while playing fun board games and online games at this event, which was a perfect way to meet fellow SWEsters. The event was held both virtually and in-person with masks on. Fortunately, the weather that weekend was fantastic! The in-person party played Pandemic and many rounds of Secret Hitler, while the virtual group played GeoGuessr. GeoGuessr is a geographic discovery game in which the players have to guess their location based on Google Street view. Pandemic is a great cooperative game in which you must eliminate four diseases that are threatening to wipe out a region. Secret Hitler is a fun deduction game in which you have to figure out who the Hitler is in the group. We hope everyone who attended to the kickoff had a great time!
