Go Orlando
Go Orlando is defunct.
Is there an AGA chapter in Orlando, Florida or Fort Lauderdale?
It seems, not.
The University of Central Florida in Orlando is starting up a Go Club. We have 4-5 regular members, although we are not an AGA registered club.
Go Orlando may also be coming back up later in 2007
For more information and information about the Go Tournament at UCF on May 5-6, 2007 please contact Joshua Lee @ Masterman535@yahoo.com
S. Florida Go Clubs
I keep seeing discussion on this topic, so here is the current situation, absolutely:
Miami Go Club
Thursdays 7pm - 11pm
Borders at the Aventura Mall
typically 6 - 8 players
This is 20 minutes from downtown Ft. Lauderdale and 30 minutes from south or southwest Miami.
Boca Raton Go Club
Tuesdays 6ish - 11pm
Borders at Glades and 441
typically four players or so
This is 20 minutes from north or northwest Broward and if Aventura is too far then head up this way. you can find contact information at Miami Go Club.
Pine Crest Go Club is a currently defunct high school club
There is a new post at the bottom about a Ft. Lauderdale coffee house, Undergrounds Coffeehaus 954-630-1900 with go gear.
This is all accurate as of 11/9/06
YES, the Miami Go Club which is actually Aventura (North Miami) and 20 minutes south of Ft. Lauderdale is active.
Are there any players in the Area? (tderz)
gtwade: I guess there isn't. Last month I went to Orlando on a semi-vacation. A few months before that, I successfully emailed the contact person listed on AGA and asked if there was anyone there who would like to play go while I was there. He emailed back and said 'Sure! I'd love to.' But, further attempts to email him failed, even though Outlook said that someone read the email! Needless to say, I was put out, and consoled myself by playing on IGS. Too bad!
tderz: not just bad (as in ''tant pis') but really bad ...

Added on 11/08/2006:
I have been looking for a Fort Lauderdale Go club too, and recently found this one Boca.
The Boca Raton Go Club site is http://www.kallisti.cc , and they meet in a Border's cafe.
Additionally, my girlfriend and I are opening a coffee shop in Fort Lauderdale where I will have my Go boards set up. Our Grand Opening party is on 11/09/2006, but everyone is welcome to come play anytime. (We're closed on Sunday - but I'll go unlock the doors for any Go players who want a Sunday game :)
