Dear Go Players,
We have some great events coming up in the next two weeks. Mr. Hiroshi Yamashiro 9d and Ms. Hiroko Shinkai 5d from the Nihon Ki-in will be visiting from this Thursday Sept. 13 till Sunday Sept 16. We will have simultaneous games and lectures, and they will be attending our big Anniversary Party on Saturday, Sept 15.
The Anniversary Party will start at 6:00 p.m., and feature a performance by the Koto ensemble "Silk Strings", which gave a wonderful performance at last year's party. The Go Center will be providing barbeque and some sushi. We are hoping that members can contribute side dishes, desserts, and beverages. We will have a banquet permit for beer, wine and sake. If you can help out, please email me with a note about what you plan to bring. My address is manager@seattlego.org.
There is no charge for this event.
One week later, on Sunday, Sept 23, we will have our Anniversary Tournament, with registration at noon at the Go Center. This is an AGA rated event with a total of $500 in prizes. The Open Section will have prizes of $150, $75, and $50. The tournament is free for voting members, and players under 18. It is $10 for all others.
As usual, there is more detailed information on our events page. Just click on an event in the calendar for to get the details.
Cheers,
Brian Allen
