<strike>We have some options.


If there's enough snow, there will be a cardboard sled challenge on Saturday February 4th, as part of WinterFest.  This is being organized by Gamehaven Boy Scouts, we could spectate at Willow Creek Golf Course.  This year's flier is available at http://www.gamehavenbsa.org/documents/CardboardSledChallengePoster2012.pdf .  (Last year's flier is available [http://www.gamehavenbsa.org/documents/2011sledflyer2.pdf here]).  It looks like 9:45 am would be a good time to arrive, to see the sleds before they are raced/demolished.</strike>


The Cardboard Sled Challenge was cancelled due to lack of snow.


Dinner at BB's Pizzaria at 6:15 pm.  The exact movie schedule for Chateau (East Circle Drive, near Shopko N) isn't released yet, but there should be ~7-7:45 pm showings of various movies that are potentially of interest, including Ghost Rider and Star Wars Episode 1 (3D).
=== Socials brainstorming: Fall or winter ===
-Murder mystery.  The host needs to buy a kit at a gaming store to get the event started.


RSVP's to Tina for dinner would be appreciated so we know how big a table to get, although hopefully we've chosen a restaurant where if you suddenly find yourself in need of dinner and company on Friday night you can still join us.
-Jim Henderson, "Silicon Valley" documentary


-Bowlocity laser tag.  5-6 people minimum needed.


=== Technical Meeting: Thursday March 8th ===
-Liquid nitrogen ice cream.  This needs a non-Tina organizer.  Dennis DeLorme has 2 recipes. We need safety equipment and someone trained enough to keep us from freezing ourselves.
We'll be field tripping to the Premier Bank building downtown, for a presentation on KVM. The details:
