Calling Board Game Fanatics and Cat Lovers alike! CUJF PJ Library and Sinai Temple are hosting a Parents Night Out at The Scratching Post: Board Game & Cat Cafe! 

If you do not want to be near cats, never fear! They are in a completely enclosed area separate from the cafe and board game area. Bring your most competitive friends to check out The Scraching Posts' incredible selection of board games - from Catan, Splendor, Exploding Kittens and more, they have it all! 

For those who LOVE cats, we invite up to 15 adults to join us from 6:30-7:20pm in the cat lounge with over a dozen friendly felines! You will be asked to fill out a waver form prior to entering the cat lounge - this form will be emailed to you following your event registration.

Thanks to the Implementing Partners Engagement Grant from the Harold Grinspoon Foundation, we are able to pay for food and drink at the cafe, cost of cat lounge and board games reservations, and will reimburse you up to $40 for the cost of babysitting. We are able to reimburse you via check on the day of the event, or via mail after the event.

RSVP is required to attend. Please register using the form on this page.
