Games mailing list

We've started a new mailing list for people who are interested in (non-video) gaming. Currently we've been playing Munchkin and RoboRally. See the link in the site navigation menu to join the mailing list if you're interested in joining us.

Technical Meeting: Thursday May 8th

For May, we visit Rochester's Studio Academy School and visit their FIRST league robot. The Rochester Public School Robot Team will demo as well. This will be a field trip, meet at Studio Academy, and we're currently planning on providing pizza and pop, so RSVPs will be requested.

Studio Academy is the former First Baptist Church, here is a [|map to the location]

Day trip to the Cities for the Science Museum's Star Wars exhibit. Available June 13-August 24. Tickets are anticipated to need to be purchased in advance due to high demand, so we'd not only need to agree on a day, we'll have to try to get a weekend far enough in advance that we can all get entry tickets for approximately the same time. If we get 15 or more people to commit and turn over money in advance, we can make group reservations - at least one month notice would be required for this as well.

While we're in the Cities for a day, we could also plan to hit up things like GameWorks (large video game arcade / bowling/ restaurant), the IMAX at the zoo, and/or woods paintball at Pro Paintball. Other ideas to make a full day of it are welcome.
