    We have a jam-packed calendar, this month. Here are this weekend's events:

    SATURDAY, 12-6
    Spring Charity Putt-Putt Challenge
    The Klingon Assault Group (KAG) is hosting it's usual putt-putt challenge against all Metro Atlanta sci-fi and fantasy clubs to benefit the Atlanta Food Bank.

    MALIBU GRAND PRIX
    5400 BROOK HOLLOW PKWY
    NORCROSS, GA 30071
    (770) 416-7630

    36 holes and go cart ride, for $5.50 and canned food donations.

    The club with the most canned food donations wins the glory. And you haven't lived until you've seen stormtroopers playing putt-putt golf. Show up to help feed the hungry, and have a great time!

    =============================
    SUNDAY, 1pm
    Star Wars Book Club Meeting
    This is the first of what we hope will be many book club meetings. Come along if you're a fan of the books, or just thinking about getting into them. All are welcome!
    We'll be discussing "Remant."

    Barnes and Noble bookstore
    2952 Cobb Parkway
    (285 and Cobb Parkway-Near Cumberland Mall)
    Book: "Force Heretic I: Remnant" by Shane Dix and Sean Williams

    Hope to see some old and new faces there!

    We had tons of fun at the Putt-Putt challenge yesterday! As always, it is a real hoot to see Klingons driving go-karts. ;)

    I hope to send the pictures we took yesterday to red_rose soon so that she can get them posted on our website.

    Hi! This is Sarah, Carol's daughter. I just wanted to say that I had a fantastic time at Malibu with ya'll this past weekend. That was the first fanclubby thing I'd ever done- thanks for making it such a great experience!

    I'm very glad that you could join us, Sarah. And I'm also very glad that we didn't frighten you too badly. ;)

    It was very nice to meet you. I hope you will join us at another event soon. :)

    You are a hoot, Sarah! I hope you come to more events before you head off to UGA Land.

    I hope more people will try out the Book Club. Tracey and I had a great time, this past weekend.

    This month's meeting will not have the usual meeting stuff with it in order to get the group picture done for the Darth Vader FanForce World Tour. (A great shot was taken with our "local Vader" a couple weeks ago.)

    We will meet outside of the main entrance of the World of Coke on Saturday,
    April 19th, at noon. We'll take a few pictures there, and then perhaps move on
    to another nearby landmark. After shooting pictures for a while, we may find a
    place to have a late lunch.

    The MARTA stop for this area is Little Five Points. There is also a parking garage across the street from Underground Atlanta.

    Also, we will be collecting money for group tickets for Sci-Fi Summer and
    Dragon*con. Group memberships are $10 for Sci-Fi summer, and $45 for Dragon*Con, as well as having brief announcements.

    We look forward to seeing you there!

    We'll probably be ready to send you the pictures on Sunday.

    This has been a lot of fun. Thanks for thinking up the whole thing.
