Wednesday November 11, 2020 - 5:45 PM to 6:30 PM

Brief Abstract

Come join the TTK Chefs for an hour of games, technology, and chef-nanigans. Bring your liquid of choice and a whole lot of patience for things to go sideways. (Is my mic still on?) We’ll play a few games, chat about a few of our favorite technology “fantastic freebies” and have more laughs than should be allowed in any one Zoom call.
