OK — it’s confirmed with Board Game Barrister. Summer meetings will be Saturdays 1-4 in the room off of the food court at Bayshore.
We get to share the space with the people playing Heroclix, which is good because they will open and close. If you know you’re planning to come, it helps if you let us know ahead of time.
Also, remember, if you are members of the American Go Association, you can record your games and get rankings.
Any comments, please e-mail!
Sorry, I didn’t get confirmation until just now, but yes, we’re on tomorrow (Sat 5/26) at 2pm at Bayshore. Board Game Barrister will host, in the room in the food court area by Panda Express. If you can’t find it, check with the staff of Board Game Barrister.
Location for the rest of the summer still remains to be determined. Anyone willing to be in charge for the rest of the summer (of course you can take vacation!) would be very helpful and would smooth the logistics in either location. Thanks!
Starting this Saturday afternoon (tomorrow, Memorial Day weekend), we’ll be on a summer schedule: Saturday 2pm. Bring your own board+stones.
Location will be determined and posted on Friday afternoon.
Would everyone who can make it reply to this e-mail and/or “register” at milwaukeego.wordpress.com to post a comment?
Unless there is a single person who would be willing to come every week, it seems that moving back to Board Game Barrister at Bayshore mall might be logistically safer, but this isn’t required. If you have any opinions now is the time to express them.
Hi, yes, we meet tonight 7pm. As many of you as can come would be good, so we can talk about scheduling the summer.
1) It turns out that three or four of the people who normally come every time will be away over the summer. I’m guessing that changing the meeting time to the afternoon will help keep the attendance at critical mass. But people who plan to play over the summer should probably also exchange contact info with each other to coordinate if necessary. Is there anyone willing to take responsibility for the go club for the summer?
2) Maybe 2pm start time rather than 4pm for the summer? (It’ll probably have to be 4pm in the fall, but 2 is fine for the summer.)
3) Maybe move back to Board Game Barrister for the summer?
4) Let’s start the afternoon schedule next week, which is Memorial Day weekend?
5) The up side of people being gone to China for the summer is that we’re planning to return with more go sets and perhaps also teaching materials.

Come Play Go
Tonight 7pm in UWM Union.
Food court floor.
Yes, Go Club is meeting as usual this Sat at 7pm at the UWM Union (food court). Great turnout, including strong players, last week!
Get your calendars ready for a change to the afternoon (probably 4pm) starting in June.
How about meeting through May at 7pm, then moving to 4pm starting June? We’ll want to have some occasional evening games for people who can’t make it in the afternoon too.
The location is the UWM Union food court, which is at the same level as the bridge over Maryland Ave., and one flight up the stairs from the street level.
1) We’ll meet as usual Sat at 7pm at the UWM Union food court.
2) Several people on this list prefer the afternoon, and as it happens this week there is a visitor (17k) who would like to play at 2pm. If any of us would like to meet him for a game or two, please reply to this e-mail or post a comment on this blog entry. He is staying at the convention center Hilton downtown.
3) FYI: At the risk of being redundant for some readers, Milwaukee Go activities are posted at milwaukeego.wordpress.com. Usually the posts will be updated by Friday night or Saturday morning, if not before.
Hi, we’re still on every Saturday 7pm in the UWM Union food court area. Look for our banner!
And it looks like we’re heading toward an eventual switch to Saturdays starting at 4pm.
The go club meeting is still on for 7pm tonight at the UWM Union in the food court area. Look for our banner!
We are still collecting input about setting a meeting time for future meetings, so if you haven’t weighed in yet, please do so soon!
