[Seattle Go Center] Weekly Kibitzer (Simuls, Japan Fair, etc.)

Hello Go Enthusiasts!

Mr. Yang Simuls Saturday
Sorry, I didn't mention the sign-up sheet for Mr. Yang's visit on Saturday, July 7. It is on the welcome desk, around the corner from the daily sign-in sheet. I think that this will be a popular event, based on the inquirires I've received! (For those who missed the announcement -- Yang Yi, 6 Dan Professional from Chinese Weiqi Association, is planning to visit Seattle Go Center around 2 PM, and has agreed to play simultaneously against up to six players! There is no charge for this, other than the usual membership / day use / 10-visits card; but you probably should sign up in advance.)

Outreach Saturday and Sunday
Japan Fair will be at Meydenbauer Center on Saturday July 7 and Sunday July 8. Admission is free! See http://www.japanfairus.org/ for details about scheduled events, parking, etc. The Go Center will have an outreach booth there, and I encourage you to help us introduce the game to interested passers by. We have five people who will help, and we could really use a few more.

Wednesday -- No Advanced Go Class
Happy Independence Day! Remember to stay safe out there. Next class will be Sunday, July 8.

Tuesday (Today)
Once again, it's time for the largest weekly gathering of Go players in the Western Hemisphere! (If those folks in São Paulo want to dispute this, then we'll settle it across the board! Or maybe on KGS.) The Go Center will be open 1 PM - 10 PM, and we gratefully expect Chris to bake a bunch of bread. See you there!

Special Thanks
This past Sunday, we had an outreach table at Key Arena for the Seattle Storm WNBA game -- not our usual sort of venue, but there was a "Japan Night" tie-in. (Time will tell whether it was a tesuji or a blunder.) We did talk to lots of people, so maybe there will be some new faces at the Go Center soon. Big thanks to Yulissa, Lucas, Melanie, Kate, and Brian! It would have been impossible without you, and you made it awesome fun!

I Know I'm Forgetting Something
Someone asked me to make an announcement. Did I write it down? Nooooo, that would be too easy. Grumble grumble. So I apologize in advance, because I'm pretty sure I'll be sending a follow-up email. Such gote.

Thanks for supporting the Go Center! See you there,
