[Seattle Go Center] Need Volunteers Please -- North Bend (19th) and Bon Odori (19-20th)

On 19 JUL, we have two outreach events:
 * North Bend Block Party -- enjoy a hike, then teach some Go, live music, good food, beer garden in front of stage for breaks
 * Bon Odori 19-20 JUL -- culturally fun with taiko, dancing, and more when not teaching Go
 
We only have two people for North Bend Block Party is on 19 JUL 10am-7pm.  They could use a couple of folks for part of the day for breaks (lunch) and to teach more people.  This is a beautiful outdoor location to teach Go with views of Mt Si after your morning hike and
festival activities to enjoy when not at the booth helping out.  
 
Bon Odori is 19-20 JUL 3-8pm.  We expect high attendance at this popular event.  There is traditional dancing in the streets and taiko players.  Please help out if you will be in town either day.  The Seattle Buddhist Temple always requests we participate, and we appreciate your help.  It is a fun event, and volunteers can take breaks to enjoy the event also.  
 
Please email programs@seattlego.org to let us know if you can help.  We really hope folks are in the mood to enjoy festivals and get new people excited about Go.
 
Thanks,
bill

Hello, Go players.
 
Some members asked about organizing a low-key Pair Go time.  As a pure fun and goofiness event, it is great to bring life partners, significant others, beginners, etc., to make Go accessible and fun to them.  Technically, it is rengo, and pairs can be any gender mix.  There is no special entry fee or AGA membership required. 
 
Hopefully 32 or 40 (or more 😊) folks show up and join in for fun.  You can bring a pair partner, ask someone during registration time, or we can make pairs from people registering solo.  Pair Go works best with multiples of 8, so that each table with two boards can have two games and a clear winning team that won both games.  We can make multiples of 4 work if need be.  PLEASE come and play!!!
 
Event time is 28th June, Sat -- registration 1-2pm, round 1 is 2-3:30, and round 2 is roughly 3:30-5:00.  There will be 40 min of main time with no byouyomi.
