| === Lunch: Thursday September 18th ===
| |
| '''Note location change''' <br>
| |
| 11:30 am, '''Buffalo Wild Wings'''<br>
| |
| At the September technical meeting the desire to vary our lunch location was again expressed. To that end, we will road trip this month to a destination that is friendly for a variable number of attendees. Because there are not a wide variety of selections (ie a food court), we're not considering this for a full time destination change. For those coming from downtown, it is on the bus route. The 12D departs downtown at 11:15 and arrives at Walmart North at 11:35 am. Or if you're running late, the 12D also leaves downtown at 11:35, arriving at 11:55. Returning to downtown can be accomplished on the 12:20 (12:45) or 12:40 (1:00 pm) buses. Not being familiar with the layout of BWW or where the IBM crew usually sits, if anyone wants to attend who is not familiar with our members by face, please speak up and we'll try to make ourselves easier to spot.
