Tag: KuL-Crew EN Page 1 of 4

Not much has happened in the last two months, but since we’ve only been in the new premises for six months, that’s allowed to happen! Nevertheless, there is some news:

• The half-year results are looking good! Although our income from drinks and collections/donations was lower than expected, this is more than made up for by the increased use of the space
• We will soon have new food offerings in the room. Kieran will be selling pastries and Ronja will be offering frozen meals
• There have also been some changes to the room decor: the fantasy room now has a sword hanging on the wall, the sci-fi room is now better soundproofed and there is a screen and a large fridge in the lounge

The first month in our new premises is already over and although we have allowed ourselves a little rest after the remodelling, a lot has already happened:

• From now on, club members can reserve the lounge free of charge for meetings, get-togethers, board games, etc. Please note that you only reserve the table – the room will continue to be used by the other groups.
• Instead of CoffeeB, we now have a fully automatic coffee machine and soon coffee directly from the roastery in the neighbourhood – so we hope you enjoy it! There have also been changes to the beer, and Wirt Beer is now also available directly from the neighbourhood.
• There is storage space for regular groups in the small room next to the Fantasy Tavern! So if you would like to store game material in the room, please contact us.
• If you would like to offer a free game in the rooms, you can now fill in the new form at KuL-Quests: kul-verein.ch/en/kul-quests-2
• And of course lots of little things: The new flyers are here, window films have been installed in both rooms, the chairs in the fantasy room have been replaced and there are now more lights, the laptops are at your disposal and much more!

Last week, 15 KuLists met in the new lounge at Güterstrasse 48 (or online in the Discord) to discuss and vote on the budget, board and planning for 2025. The most important points in brief:

• The majority of the new Board consists of existing Board members: Alain, Cenk, Mario, Patricia and Tim. Elia is a new member – welcome!
  Merci to the former ones: Manuel and Sybille!
  
• Membership fees amount to CHF 60 again this year – invoices have already been sent out (haven’t received any? Please get in touch 🙂 )
  
• Due to the expenses for the remodelling of the new premises, we have to suspend the previous discounts for multiple bookings. In other words, the prices for a room booking are again fixed at Chf 40.- (for KuLists) or Chf 60.- for non-members.
  
• A new game event vessel will be created, the room hire of which will be sponsored by KuL as long as the events are open to the public. This is intended as a follow-up project to Arcanor and also includes, for example, our Pathfinder Society or System of the Month games. More information will follow.

Thank you so much to everyone who took part and to everyone who supports KuL in other ways! You are awesome!

Details, as always, in the minutes (german):

We’ll be moving soon! The last two weeks have been spent building, painting, crafting and decorating the premises at Güterstrasse 48. Slowly but surely the whole thing is taking shape and color and the idea of the environment in which we will soon be able to play our games is becoming more and more vivid. I’m really looking forward to it! Thank you to everyone who has invested dozens of hours over the last few days – you are mega KUL!

And of course we continue with:

Events!

• Goodbye Laupenstrasse, 23.1.
  It will soon be over, the time when our association had its home in Laupenstrasse. And even though we have every reason to look forward to the new location and all the great stories we will experience in Güterstrasse, we want to raise our glasses to Laupenstrasse once again!
  
• Pathfinder Society, in German, 12.2. & 19.2.
  The Pathfinders find themselves invited to a charity dinner to benefit the Knights of Lastwall fighting in far-off lands against the lich king, Tar-Baphon. In the middle of dinner, evidence of a strange ritual arises, and the Pathfinders must investigate before dinner becomes a murder mystery!
  Registration via Meetup.
  
• System of the Month Februar: Vaesen, in English, 8.2. & 22.2.
  In dark forests, beyond the mountains, by black lakes in hidden groves. At your doorstep. In the shadows, something stirs. Strange beings. Twisted creatures, lurking at the edge of vision. Watching. Waiting. Unseen by most, but not by you. You see them for what they really are. Vaesen.
  Registration via form in the post.
