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.  Last year's flier is available at http://www.gamehavenbsa.org/documents/2011sledflyer2.pdf .


Another option would be the often requested dinner and a movie.  However Tina pays no attention to the movie scene, and therefore needs movie recommendations and restaurant location requests.

Well, not really a crisis, but we do need some meeting topics (& speakers) for 2012. We'd like to know what you want to see and hear about. Please email Tina or Tim with suggestions for topics. Should we run some previous sessions again (maybe something you really wanted to see but missed out on)? What type of topics are good, what type are bad?  Also see this page for a list of suggested topics http://www.k-lug.org/Meetings
