Wednesday is "Big" night at the NGC

Since the opening of the National Go Center in Washington, DC May, organizers reports that "we have been very gratified to see the volunteer support for having the National Go Center open Tuesday thru Saturday nights." And "Now that we have had a little time to be open and get feedback, the top suggestion has been that we pick a single night that everyone is encouraged to come if they can so that no matter what your level, you can always find a good match. Also it should have a time where beginners can come and get dedicated instruction in how to play. And with community turnout, a social time to bring refreshments, plan activities, and see friends." With that in mind, Wednesday has been designated the "big" night at the NGC. "We'll be open longer hours on Wednesdays, from 5-11 PM, with 5-7 a special time for beginners to learn the game with volunteers on hand to teach. Feel free to bring refreshments to share also." Friday is "another great night to play with a dedicated group of attendees," NGC organizers add. "Check the schedule for other nights before you come as our summer schedule is a little less regular."
