We have some options.


If you noticed our website and mailing list down for a while, it was due to the week long east coast power/internet outage.
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.


=== Planned Social/"Technical Meeting":  Friday December 9th, 6:30 pm ===
Due to lack of input as well as former hosting sites such as p0wned having gone out of business, Tina is hosting a gaming night at her house.  Email her if you need address and/or directions.  Start time is 6:30 pm.  Note that this is NOT our usual second Thursday, we pushed it back one night so people don't have to deal with getting to work in the morning.


We play whatever you bring. Please consider bringing a folding table and chairs, board games, card games, video games, video game system accessories, and/or snacks and beverages.  RSVP's of the types of stuff you're bringing would be appreciated so we don't have overstocks of some items such as four people hauling their folding table and chairs, or everyone bringing chips.

Upcoming Meeting Crisis!

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
