Welcome to Driftless Tabletop

WINONA, MN — A new community group, Driftless Tabletop, has officially formed with the mission of creating welcoming spaces for families, friends, and neighbors to gather around games. Rooted in the Driftless Region’s strong sense of local identity, the group is dedicated to hosting regular game nights that highlight both classic favorites and modern tabletop experiences. Organizers say the goal is simple: to foster connection, creativity, and fun in a family-friendly environment.

The group plans to host events at venues across the region, including local lodges, community centers, and small businesses. By partnering with places like Nate & Ally’s Frozen Treat Creations and the Sobieski Lodge, Driftless Tabletop hopes to make game nights accessible and inviting to all ages. Each event will feature a mix of board games, card games, and dice-based favorites, with volunteers on hand to teach rules and encourage participation. The emphasis is on inclusivity, ensuring that newcomers feel just as welcome as seasoned players.

Community leaders and participants see Driftless Tabletop as more than just a gaming group—it’s a way to strengthen bonds across generations and neighborhoods. In a time when digital entertainment often dominates, the group offers a refreshing return to face-to-face interaction and shared laughter. Organizers envision the initiative becoming a cornerstone of regional culture, with game nights evolving into cherished traditions that celebrate the Driftless Region’s spirit of togetherness.
