LUG News

Another May Social

Outside? We hope! What would you like to do? Tell Tina.


Technical Meeting: Tuesday June 10th

Intro to reddit.com and social bookmarking in general, and the KLUG reddits in particular, by Eldon Nelson. 6 pm in RCTC's Heintz Center room HA107, see here.


Lunch: Thursday June 19th

11:30 am, Apache Mall food court, near the B&N.


June Social

Ideas can be found here or invent your own. What would you like to do? Tell Tina.


Social sometime in June, July, or August

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.


New Gaming Center Coming to Rochester?

It sounds like a new LAN video game center is rolling into Rochester in June, so be ready to get your game on. The name will be Pwned and it will be... more...

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.


Want a K-Lug Shirt?

Our first batch of shirts came out rather nice, especially for the price. We have folk who didn't get in on the first order. Please browse the deals here, and contact Tim if interested. (We need a minimum order of 4) We can now order screen printed tees from this company as well
