Affinity Group Maker Faire / Dinner @ San Mateo Event Center

MakerFaire 2013 Invite

Join us for a fun day at Maker Faire with dinner afterwards!

Maker Faire is a fun and interactive fair where exhibitors come to show their imaginative creations (from a wide variety of genres) and share their experiences!

For more information, check out their website:http://MakerFaire.com

Maker Faire consists of over 900 “tech enthusiasts, crafters, educators, tinkerers, hobbyists, engineers, science clubs, authors, artists, students, and commercial exhibitors” who will be sharing their artistic creations and talking about their processes. Most of the booths / exhibits are interactive!

It is a ton of fun for people of all ages, so this is an Affinity “Family Inclusive” event. Anyone of any age is welcome, so bring your family and friends!

Tickets are $24 for adults, $16 for students (with our discount). Order tickets online here:http://makerfaire2013.eventbrite.com

Get 20% off with our discount code:MFBA13Group. This code is only good if you buy the tickets online. Tickets are cheaper online than if you order at the gate, so don’t wait!

We plan to meet up for dinner at Taste In Mediterranean Food at 7pm. It’s about 5 miles away from Maker Faire. Here’s the Yelp link if you’d like to check them out:http://www.yelp.com/biz/taste-in-mediterranean-food-burlingame-2

Spiritual Reality by Dr. Laurance Doyle @ Giedt Hall, UC Davis campus
Nov 14 @ 1:00 pm – 3:00 pm

The UC Davis CSO will be hosting a lecture on the UC Davis campus this Saturday, November 14th at 1:00pm. Dr. Laurance Doyle will be speaking to the UC Davis campus and surrounding community. He is a Principal Investigator at the SETI Institute, the Director of the Institute for the Metaphysics of Physics at Principia College, a previous member of the NASA Kepler Mission Science Team, and a prior Lecturer at UC Santa Cruz.

Dr. Doyle will be applying scientific principles and laws to metaphysical ideas. Starting with a scientific base in quantum physics, he will then apply a scientist’s viewpoint to discuss the spiritual nature of reality. He will use a Christian Science perspective to discuss how spiritual healing reveals a deeper reality. There will be a question and answer session after the talk. All are welcome and encouraged to attend.

If you need directions, please visit the UC Davis CSO website and click on the link for “directions to Giedt Hall.” The directions will be opened in a new window.
