I am currently in negotiation with the event director at the Elks Lounge in Naugatuck, CT. It looks like I may have found us a place to LAN!

As of now, I am arranging for space to accommodate 24 people comfortably. Pricing will be $20 a person to cover hall rental fees. Unfortunately, the hall does not have internet access; more info is located on the information page.

Regarding food, it looks like this will end up being a “Potluck” party – everyone brings food to share with each other. I will try to provide beverages such as sodas and water. Until I can arrange a deal with a local pizza place, this LAN and potentially the next few will have to get “Potluck”.

On another note, I have fully upgraded the LAN party networking gear to 1 gigabit speeds!

I will post another update soon once things are final with the hall as well as mass email everyone.

Now that the Holidays are over, I am getting the ball rolling to start hosting monthly parties.

First things first – I still cannot find a location suitable and cost efficient in the Southbury/Naugatuck area. Does anyone have any suggestions? I’ve contacted a handful of Hotels in the area and they either do not have enough room or are WAY too expensive. Please send me an email with locations and prices.

I will continue to try and find a place – at this point I should just begin looking for a house with a large, unfinished basement!
