HAL HAAG MEMORIAL GAMING SESSION THIS SUNDAY

The next GCOM Alphabet Soup gaming Session will be held on August 23, noon - 6
pm, in memory of its founder, Hal Haag, who passed away on August 12, 2009.

We don't know how much gaming will actually be done, but everyone who knew Hal
is invited to join with us to remember him and celebrate his life, whether you
knew him through Gaming, SF Fandom and conventions, or in any other way.

We will provide refreshments, and we are asking for everyone's help with that.
If you would like to contribute to a potluck, please see the attached list of
suggested items that you can bring, or bring your own specialty. It would help
if you would respond to us at one of the email addresses below and tell us what
you plan to bring, so we can augment where necessary. The BSFS Building does not
have a kitchen, so what you bring should be ready to go. We may be able to plug
in a few crockpots or similar. We will have refrigeration available, but not
much.

For those wishing to speak a few words in celebration of Hal's life, we will set
aside some time at about 3:00.


Alphabet Soup is held in the Baltimore Science Fiction Society Building, at
3310 E Baltimore St, Baltimore, MD, 21224, on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of each
month, between noon and 6 pm.

Directions are at http://www.bsfs.org/bsfsdrct.htm

There is on-street parking, and while the neighborhood may look a bit dodgy, we
have not had any significant problem with security issues. But please, don't
tempt people, leave electronics, cash, and other bait out of sight, and please
lock your car.


Bring your games or just your memories, and join us then.

Please forward this on to other friends of Hal.
