New Members Social & May Bday celebration. FOURTH FRIDAYS
So we have been trying out different locations and different way to do this. This time we are doing it as a Game Night. All members welcome and encouraged to attend.
Cafe Jack is really like nothing else around. But yes, . . . it is a Titanic parked on Western near Wilshire. Some links to give you the flavor of it. But truly . . .it's more an experience. The amazing thing is the yelp is polarized. We are going for the camp aspect. So it will be 55 stars.

YELP Cafe Jack (http://www.yelp.com/biz/cafe-jack-los-angeles)
They have Coffee, . . . beer, . . . Sake, . . . sushi, . . . other food, . . . psychic readings. . . . We will get the state rooms and everywhere else. They do also have Karaoke rooms.
We will be doing games night. This will be including Cards Against Humanity
with EVERY expansion pack in addition to several 3rd party expansions (currently over 2,500 cards!)
In addition to Cards Against Humanity, there will be other fun 'adult' games of a similar nature available to play as well! These titles currently include:
• Exploding Kittens NSFW Edition
• Joking Hazard
• Telestrations: After Dark
•
Jenga and soooooo much more.

HOWEVER . . .

The concept here is very simple. If you are NEW in the group or New in Town OR if your B-day is this month. . . . Then THIS is the event to go. You want to meet some other similarity situated folks. You want to meet other members. You want one more reason to celebrate your B-day.
If you are a seasoned member then this is ALSO the event to go to. How else to meet new members and who would the new members meet?
So you will meet and make a nice circle of friend and decent people.
The main goals are to:
• Socialize and get to meet people. All members welcome and encouraged to come.
• Celebrate any birthdays of members in that month.
• Be a New Members welcome too. And meet other more seasoned members too!!
So we tried out Adults Only as a location (damn good). Bar great space but dark.
We tried out The Study, great place but the music overtook.
This time we are going for a non-music table based location with games as the mixer/minlger. There is Beer, Sake and Food at this location.
PARKING: That's the one question all will ask.
• At this area of Western there is plenty of street meter parking that is avail on Western and on 5th. The locals residents do not use as it's 2 hr meter. Meters only go to 8 though.
• S/E Corner There is a small small lot we can park in and stack.
• S/E Corner There is a Dry Cleaner next door after they close for the night.
• N/E Corner There is the California Marketplace with a Coffee Bean in it. Park there and get something at Coffee Bean.
• S/W Corner There is a Carl's on corner across. Park there and get fries.
So yes, . . . There are parking options: However!!!! TAKE THE TRAIN.
Purple Line Stop Wilshire/Western is 1000 ft from the door. That's about 1 football field.
Possible games: Bring your own too!
