== LUG News ==
We can use presentations for upcoming meetings, please see [http://www.k-lug.org/Meetings a list of ideas] if you're willing but lacking a topic.




=== Social:  August TBD ===
== LUG News ==
Ideas can be found [http://www.k-lug.org/SocialMeeting here] or invent your own.  What would you like to do?  Tell Tina.  Suggestions submitted for August so far include:
 
-Canoeing/tubing down the Zumbro River from Zumbro Falls to Hammond, ~2-2.5 hours on the water.  $20 per canoe, not sure on the cost for tubing, includes the cost of shuttle.  If you bring your own boat, they'll apparently shuttle you for $5.  They don't take credit cards but they do take checks.  Saturday, Sunday, or a weekday afternoon (last launch ~3 pm?).
 
-Roadside clean-up, we could tag along with the Ski Patrol's cleanup if we wanted.  This could be a weekend or weekday event.
 
-Go karts ($5/1 round, not sure about a discount for multiple rounds)
and/or paintball at [http://www.skylineracewayroch.com/index.html Skyline Raceway].  According to their calendar, go karting appears to be available any day of the week.  Paintball only appears to be available 4-7 pm on Fridays, 1-7 pm on Saturdays.  If we do this, I'd appreciate an experienced paintballer volunteering to organize this portion.  Skyline also has minigolf.


We generally meet monthly for technical presentations (2nd Thursday of the month, 6 pm, virtual), and monthly for socializing (varies).  We no longer meet monthly for lunches, if you are interested in reviving this tradition please [http://k-lug.org/About contact an officer].
