Arkham Horror Picture Show
This is a FRIDAY night Arkham Horror event. It's a co-op game that's best played with 6 people or less. It will be held at my house, so I will only give out directions to people I've met before because I am weird sometimes. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Story/Lore The year is 1926, and it is the height of the Roaring Twenties. Flappers dance till dawn in smoke-filled speakeasies drinking alcohol supplied by rum runners and the mob. It's a celebration to end all celebrations in the aftermath of the war to end all wars. Yet a dark shadow grows in the city of Arkham. Alien entities known as Ancient Ones lurk in the emptiness beyond space and time, writhing at the gates between worlds. These gates have begun to open and must be closed before the Ancient Ones make our world their ruined domination. Only a handful of investigators stand against the Arkham Horror. Will they Prevail? Game Description Arkham Horror is a cooperative adventure game themed around H.P Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos. Players choose from 16 Investigators and take to the streets of Arkham. Before the game, one of the eight Ancient Ones is chosen and it's up to the Investigators to prevent it from breaking into our world. During the course of the game, players will upgrade their characters by acquiring skills, allies, items, weapons, and spells. It's up to the players to clean out the streets of Arkham by fighting many different types of monsters, but their main goal is to close portals to other dimensions that are opening up around town. With too many portals open the Ancient One awakens and the players only have one last chance to save the world. Defeat the Ancient One in combat! Tutorial Video Tutorial - this video series is long, but it's very thorough.

New England Season Opener Sprint Du/Tri
Races: Sprint

The NE Season Opener at Hopkinton State Park is the best kickoff race to the season. Your choice: Duathlon or Triathlon! The State Park is a beautiful location with tree lined park roads and a picturesque reservoir. The course travels through historic Southborough, Ashland and Hopkinton. Whether you compete in the Du or the Tri, this is an early season race not to be missed!

Course Description
Swim Course
The swim takes place in the Hopkinton reservoir - clean, spacious, scenic and calm. Family and friends can watch too, given the ample room afforded by the transition area and swim start. The water will be cool, (65’) wetsuits are highly recommended. Check out some great deals for wetsuit purchase and rental on our sponsor page.

Duathlon Run Leg#1
The first leg of the Duathlon is a simple out and back run of 2 miles in length. You’ll begin at Max’s Arch when the gun goes off and run briefly across the beach for some added fun! This run leg is entirely within Hopkinton State Park on park roads.

Bike Course
The bike leg is an excellent course. It begins on park roads, with downhill turns and rolling terrain through Southborough and Ashland. You’ll experience one stimulating hill to make it even more exciting, as you cross the start of the famous Boston Marathon. You’ll finish with a fun downhill as you enter the park for the final run leg.

Run Course
The final part of both races finish with a 5-k run, 100% inside the scenic Park. Crowd cheers echoing off the reservoir will help you as you make your way to the 300-yd. flagged chute to the huge arched finish line.
