November 7 - one-night casual chess at Milwaukee German Immersion School

Since our Hales Corners SWCC club is closed on November 7 (and October 31) due to the elections, Thor Templin has offered his Milwaukee German Immersion School for us to play casual (non-rated) play (there may be blitz or rapid as well):

November 7 (Thursday), 7:00 pm - ~10:00 pm.

Milwaukee German Immersion School is at the corner of 82nd and Vienna (about 3 blocks south of Capitol Drive). So from the 43 or 41, take the Capitol exit to 82nd St. There is street parking as well as a lot located on 81st and Vienna. People should enter at the main doors just off of 82nd and Vienna.
