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.




=== Technical Meeting:  Tuesday August 12th ===
== LUG News ==
Kevin Arhelger will give us a report on his trip to [https://www.defcon.org/ Defcon 16].  The usual place and time:  RCTC's [http://www.roch.edu/html-spectrum/getting_to_ucr.html Heintz Center] , [http://www.rctc.edu/campustour/maps/heintzA.html Room HA107] , 6 pm.
 


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].


=== Social:  August TBD ===
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:


-Picnic


-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)
=== Virtual Social: Thursday November 14th ===
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.
6 pm

Also, thank you for your efforts at our fall trash cleanup.  The Public Works Department gave these summary measures of the city-wide efforts:  "Over 620 pounds of litter was collected by A Litter Bit Better volunteers during the fall event.
