Ok, first, this is not a typical meetup event, in that I am posting an existing group's Badminton Open Gym. I have participated in their get together for several months now, and they are a friendly and open group willing to take in new players. Although you can attend for free the first time (you got ot say that you are "trying it out" to the front staff if they ask about membership to the Community Center), frankly you can attend without ever being asked about membership, though the membership is awefully cheap (like $15 per year) and that membership allows you to make use of the whole facility. In any case, I am posting this as a regular event at the gym, the group running the event are not Meetup members, and I will not be acting as host (like in typical meetup events), though if you see me post as attending, I will act real friendly to you. Please bring your own racket, and birdies (though the people already attending typically have enough birdies to share).
