=== Social:  Friday January 28th ===
We'll be bowling at Byron Lanes.  Please try to be there at 6:45 so we can get through the ball/shoe obtainment process and hopefully figure out if we need any more/less lanes before it gets too crowded.  Our reservation is for 7 pm, we've got 2 lanes at the moment.


Costs for bowling are $2/person/game, with shoe rental being $1.  They have a full bar, and on Fridays they also serve pizza, if anyone is interested in a snack before or after the games.
