**NOTE: Since my free time is constrained as a new dad and I'm not sure I can go, this will be *unhosted* \- i\.e\. you shouldn't expect to see me there\. However\, if you plan to go\, I encourage you to connect & coordinate with our other group members who plan to go via comments on this event and/or through direct messaging\.**
