Attendees (Participants)

Eric M. (Chair), Brad K., Leah F., Christian H., Danny H., Travis M., Vader.

Eric met with Ezz Hasan, the owner of Spindle, and further confirmed details of the event to be sure he would be okay with us requesting $5 donations and having the event from 7pm to 12am on a Saturday night. He also clarified that he does not want any outside food or drink brought to the event – Spindle will sell drinks and we will need to coordinate with a vendor to have pop up food available.
Toured Spindle and took photos.
Eric had text conversation with Cord Woodruff, an OutWorlders members, about using his office, World 50 in Buckhead, for a Game Night and/or Video Game Night. We would be allowed to bring our own food and drink and have the event from 7pm to 12am and request $5 donations. World 50 would also make a great space for a combination Game Night as there are offices and private spaces to minimize noise.
Toured World 50 and took photos.
Spindle Con: Paid parking makes it more difficult to ask for $5 donation.
World 50 Con: Office is inside building so lots of walking through complex to get to office from parking.
Our recommendation is to try both venues: have June Video Game Night at Spindle and July Video Game Night at World 50.
