Go Take a Bath this Saturday

"There are very few things that beat saunas in the winter," says Boris Bernadsky. "One of them is playing go in the sauna in the winter." That's why he's hosting an unusual go Meet-Up this Saturday at the King's Spa, a Korean style bathhouse in Palisades Park, NJ. Here's a link for a discount entrance fee. "The spa has a space separated by gender where the bathing occurs and a coed area where there are many dry sauna and activity areas, including go boards," says Bernadsky. "I will bring two more just in case." The spa provides clothing for the coed area. There is also a restaurant, and for $10 extra you get a blanket and can spend the night on a lazyboy -- the go event runs from 5p Saturday through 8a Sunday -- although as Berndsky notes, playing all night "is not mandatory. Anyway it will be fun!"
