August 2025 Newsletter
A note from Diane…
There has been a lot of talk lately about these three words; diversity, equity and inclusion. For some, they’ve simply taken on a negative connotation. Others view them as burdensome or forced upon them through regulations.
For Inclusible, however, these three words are at the core of what we do. We think of them in simple terms.
Diversity means our communities are made up of all different kinds of people with all different stories, abilities and ideas.
Equity means everyone gets their fair share.
Inclusion means no one is left out.
Especially now, Inclusible will continue to use these words to guide us in making our little corner of the world a better place and hopefully to show others that we are much, much better together than divided. Collectively, we are wiser, stronger, healthier and happier… We have synergy!
Event Highlights
The Upper Hudson Library System invited us to train librarians to hold their own inclusive game-playing events! After the group training we participated in a collaborative event at each library. We now share their events on our UPCOMING EVENTS web page. Our libraries are awesome!
We held our first Español-English game night in Clifton Park! What a fun-loving and enthusiastic group we had!
After discovering a delightful boutique in Ballston Spa, we decided to partner with them to sell Inclusible Games! They are an eco-focused artisan boutique carrying goods mostly from New York State artisans. Stop by to see the whole collection of our games in person at BOHO CHIC BOUTIQUE!

Featured Game
Starfish Surprise has become one of our players’ favorite games. Simple yet strategic, it keeps everyone guessing until the end! Will your pick help you or someone else? Will a purple peg make you sorry? (¡Lo siento!) This quick and engaging game is great for players ages 4 - adult.
The game includes: Hand-tooled wooden starfish board, 36 colorful pegs, cotton drawstring pouch, visual support cards with text and instructions for play.
Shop in person at PASTORE'S GREEN GROCER in Halfmoon, BOHO CHIC in Ballston Spa or through our online store at INCLUSIBLE GAMES.

We could not do what we do without help. We are so very grateful for our generous volunteers and enthusiastic interns! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
We are always in need of volunteers to be a play partner, keep a small group game going and assist with set ups. Please reach out if you’d like to add some fun to your life! :) CONTACT US!
