Go club meets tomorrow 2/25 as usual

Come to Bayshore (atrium area outside Board Game Barrister) at 7pm on Saturday to welcome visitors and new players — so happy to be meeting so many new faces this year!

Sat Feb 11 go with visitors?

We're looking forward to connecting with some new players and re-connecting with some others this Saturday, as Chinese New Year festivities wind down.

Looking toward the future, we've been encouraged by many people to move to a weekly rather than twice-monthly format. Mainly the idea is to make it easier for people to visit us without having to wonder whether it's an off or an on week. We probably wouldn't start this for another couple of months but let's talk it over before deciding one way or another.

See you @ 7pm this Saturday evening 2/11 in the Bayshore Atrium near Board Game Barrister.

Go Club at Bayshore this Saturday

Last Saturday, despite the snow on the ground, the tournament at the Domes New Year Festival successfully made contact with several new (but experienced) go players, as well as a number of intrigued high schoolers and their parents. 

This Saturday, we hope we can welcome some of these players (if they aren't at one of the several Chinese New Year's parties) at Bayshore at our usual time: 7pm near Board Game Barrister.

These next couple of weeks would also be a great time for beginners to sign up for lessons Sundays 4-5 pm at Marquette's LaLumiere Hall for the spring semester.  Go to mmcsweb.com and look for the 2012 Spring Registration link on the RIGHT SIDE of the page.

Go Club - Saturday, Dec 10th

This is just a reminder that the Milwaukee Go Club is meeting this Saturday, December 10th. We have a number of people who have said they'll be there, and we'd love to see the rest of you there as well! We meet near the Board Game Barrister at the Bayshore Mall, around 7:00 PM. Hope to see you there.

Thanksgiving GO

Yes, the Milwaukee Go Club is meeting this post-Thanksgiving Saturday.  7pm by the Board Game Barrister in the Atrium at Bayshore (across from Starbucks, south of the Food Court).  Thanks to Aaron Zheng who organized a demo table at the Holiday Folk Fair!   

Milwaukee Go Club updates

First: this coming Saturday is go night at Bayshore (2nd Saturday of November). 
Glad to see some new faces! 

Second, an opportunity:
Volunteers who would like to demo go at the Holiday Folk Fair can do so and (I think) get some free tickets. 
Reply by e-mail with your preferred times:

11/18/2011 (Fri): 5-8pm
11/19/2011 (Sat): 11am-2pm (new)
11/19/2011 (Sat): 2pm-5pm
11/19/2011 (Sat): 5pm-8pm (new)
11/20/2011 (Sun): 10am-1pm

Third, a query:
Would anyone be interested in meeting at Bayshore every Saturday night?
This could potentially make it easier for newcomers to find us,
so people don't have to remember which week to show up. 

Fourth: an announcement from the Iowa Go Club:

Hello, Midwest go players!

I\'d just like to take this opportunity to invite you all to join us for the All-Iowa Go Tournament on December 3rd! We\'re expecting a large array of players from all around the Midwest, so there will definitely be good games available no matter what your skill level!

GO night: Yes, 9/24 is a 4th Saturday

Posted on September 23, 2011

First things first: This Saturday, 9/24 is a 4th Saturday, and thus it is a GO night. See you at Board Game Barrister inside Bayshore Town Center (Bayshore mall) anytime after 7pm! There's usually people playing till at least 8:30 but often quite a bit later than that. If you want to check, you can call Board Game Barrister and ask — 414-963-2100.  They're good for directions, too.

Second:  Somebody approached me and proposed that we host an annual 13×13 "express go" tournament to be held at the Mitchell Park Domes in January/February (near the Lunar New Year).  And we'll probably have some space at the Holiday Folk Fair for a demo sometime during that (weekend before Thanksgiving).

Third: There's still space in the go class Sunday afternoons at Marquette.  It's only $35 for the whole semester (Sept – January), which is a good deal.  Go to "register" at www.MMCSweb.com.

See you Saturday, and/or Sunday!
