| === Social: Thursday May 23rd ===
| |
| As of 5/13, there were still no disc golf holes out at RCTC, and I'm not thrilled about bringing toddlers to East Park for several reasons. So we're going to go to Stewartville, and play disc golf at [http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Bear+Cave+Park,+Stewartville,+MN&hl=en&sll=46.44186,-93.36129&sspn=7.359657,13.688965&oq=bear+cave+park&hq=Bear+Cave+Park,+Stewartville,+MN&t=m&z=16 Bear Cave Park]. We typically have a few spare discs to share among those attending, but if you plan on attending and need to borrow it's best if you can give us a heads up. Otherwise you can throw your own non-golf disc, a ball, or a shoe.

| |
| Well, not really a crisis, but we do need some meeting topics (& speakers) for 2013. 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
