NYC2600 Meeting – March 2023

Please note: a memorial dinner gathering for our departed friend Jim “Red Balaclava” Vichench will take place after the meeting. More info is here on Pam’s Twitter, be sure to look for her at the meeting and say hello.

Here’s how it works:

Show up to the food court at Citigroup Center, 53rd Street and Lexington Avenue! Look for a cluster of tables occupied by friendly hackers who are excited to meet you.

Masking is not currently required at the space, but you are welcome to remain masked and/or take other health precautions as you see fit.

See you there!

Remembering Jim – update

Although a memorial dinner was planned for this week, please note that due to a combination of factors the memorial gathering for Jim Vichench which was previously scheduled to take place after the February NYC2600 meeting is being postponed a month. With Jim’s widow Pam finding herself unable to attend and extreme weather conditions being predicted, it would not make sense to hold the event this week.

The memorial will now take place after the March 2023 meeting. Plan accordingly.

Find more info on the February NYC2600 Meeting here. Watch this site and our social media for info on the March meeting when it approaches.

Remembering Jim

NYC2600’s own Pam, widow of Jim Vichench, has set up a memorial get-together to take place immediately following the next NYC2600 meeting on Friday, February 3.

Everyone is welcome to join “Remembering Jim” dinner at Gemini Diner, 35th St & 2nd Ave, AFTER the February 3 @NYC2600 meeting. It’s “going dutch,” as I only inherited clothes & books. Bring funny Jim stories!

You can find further info and contact details here on Pam’s Twitter, or just come along when a bunch of us leave together.
