=== Downtown Lunch:  Thursday December 10th  ===
11:30 am, 1st Avenue food court downtown, at the bigger tables near the entrance.






=== Technical Meeting / Social:  Friday December 11th, 6:00 pm ===
In December we do something like board or card games, video games, etc because it's just too close to Thanksgiving and Christmas to fit in a social and a speaker.


Tina is hosting a gaming night at her house.  Email her if you need address and/or directions.  Start time is 6:00 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.
=== Technical Meeting:  Thursday January 14th ===
Dennis DeLorme on a recent basement project - the $2 wireless link.


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.


Dinner of pizza from Pizza Hut will be ordered promptly at 6:30, don't be late.  Please bring cash in small bills to chip in for your portion of the pizza if you choose to partake.
6 pm, in or near RCTC Heintz Center's HA107.
