[Seattle Go Center] Tournament Sunday; Go Around Town; Thanks Volunteers!

Hello Go fans,

A few things to mention this time. Well, several, actually. (One of which is, WELCOME to the several new members of the announcements group!)


Tournaments

Monthly ratings tournament is Sunday, November 4. Register in person between 10:00 and 10:45 AM. Don't miss out on three rounds of adrenaline-soaked tournament intensity! No playing fee; but you have to be an AGA member (http://www.usgo.org/join-aga-today) and Go Center admission rules apply (http://www.seattlego.org/membership). More info on the calendar, http://www.seattlego.org/events

South Sound Go Club Veterans Day Tournament will be in Tacoma, Sunday, November 11. Three rounds. Register in person, 9:00-10:00 AM, at Terracrux Games, 760 Commerce St., Tacoma WA 98402. AGA membership required (http://www.usgo.org/join-aga-today), + $5. Details soon at https://southsoundgoclub.wordpress.com/2018/10/21/tournament-sunday-11-11

The Youth Tournament will be Sunday, November 18. Open to players 17 and younger; a just-for-fun event at the Go Center, on 13x13 or 19x19 boards (players' choice). No playing fee, and there will be small prizes of books, equipment, and fun stuff. It starts at 1:00 PM. More info on the calendar, http://www.seattlego.org/events

Advance notice -- Gala Night of Pair Go, Saturday December 8, starting at 5:00 PM. $10 general admission ($5 for Go Center voting members). I have it on good authority that Ms. Haijin Lee will be joining us! (Ah, it's good to be the Go Center.) So round up your partner (remember International Pair Go rules call for a male player and a female player). Formal dress is encouraged, but not required.

Thanks volunteers!

I started to list all the volunteers I want to thank, who make the Go Center possible. There are too many; so for now I'll just call out the four stalwarts taking over for Daniel Top at Hurry Curry. (That's right, his Go outreach is so strong, it takes a team of four to replace him! They need some kind of Superhero Team name. The Tenuki Invasion? The Grand Moyo? The Four Corners? Well, that last one kind of rhymes at least.) Anyway, THANK YOU: Jiaqi, Keyi, Krish, and Maxfield!

See you soon at the Go Center,

PS - Since it's Halloween -- Where do Go players go on Halloween?

(To the "Honte'd House"!)
Thanks Ned!!
