The Eyez 2 Life Club has been established!

The website is: http://eyez2lifegoclub.webs.com/index.htm

I plan to detail everything out gradually as the week goes on, depending on how well the club is received. I want it to be a semi-formal function that places more emphasis on fun and growth rather than rigorous competition. Of course, that will have a place, too.

Starting this club won't be easy. Exposure is a necessary ingredient to anything like this, so I'm hoping to garner the support of the Go community to help make this endeavor successful. And, I am not looking for money. Any monetary costs will come out of my own pocket. What I'm looking for is members who are attracted to a club like what I'm establishing.

It's not meant to compete with L19 or the ASR League, now that I think about it. It's meant to be a sort of middle ground that promotes both, while still being its own entity.

This idea, some of you will recall, was started some time ago when I posted fliers and the desire to start a local club in my area. However, I decided that restricting it to simply local connectivity would be a downfall. This is why I've decided to include an online section.

If this catches your interest, do feel free to join!

P.S. I probably sound like a crazy person, but this is something I've wanted to do for some time now. If you have any suggestions, feel free to let me know!

Crazy person? If more people in the US had your drive, Go would be a lot more popular in my opinion :)

Keep it up, this looks interesting and fun :tmbup:

Thank you!

The first promotional event that I have planned will be held at 4:30 EST today in the Advanced Studies Room. There is more information in the News section of the Eyez 2 Life Go Club website.

Thank you! I appreciate it. Now I suppose I can post some things I post on my site there, just to make it easier for everyone to be involved.

Because then the index page grows bigger.
