Things of Note:
1) Movie Night!! The first “East of Eden Movie” - “King of Eden”.
2) The JAFWA annual elections will be June 19. Who wishes to help in the running of JAFWA? Get your Nominations in soon.

Saturday 8th May 2010

No JAFWA on either Saturday 24th April or 1st May!
Experiment with this thing called “Life” instead.
(JAFWA is not reponsible for the fate of mad scientists.)

The tentative JAFWA program for Saturday 8th May 2010 is below. To be held in the Collins Street Community Center on Collins Street just off Canning Highway in South Perth.

Things of Note:
1) Slight Problem:- The Community Center is not available on the ANZAC Day long weekend. We will just have to be patriotic this weekend. In small doses it is good for you.
2) On May 1 the Doctor Who club “WestLodge” is having a screening in the afternoon, and in the evening at UWA Tavern there is the UWAnime Quiz Night. You can survive this weekend without JAFWA.
3) Carl Macek, the man who brought anime to the West in the form of RoboTech has joined the choir invisible, to put it respectfully.
4) We be thinking of the upcoming JAFWA annual elections sometime soon? Who wishes to help in the running of JAFWA?
5) Are there any artistic types who can design for JAFWA a new mascot? Nobody seems to recognise (the somewhat venerable) Misty May from Daicon 3 and 4.

Saturday 17th April 2010

The tentative JAFWA program for Saturday 17th April 2010 is below. To be held in the Collins Street Community Center on Collins Street just off Canning Highway in South Perth.

Things of Note:
1) Barring a few teething troubles, the move to JAFWA’s new location at Collins Street Community Center went well! NOTE that the free sausage sizzle will not be happening each week, but feel free to thank Drew, Julian, Wendy and Sally.
Also thanks to the people who helped clean up at the end of night. Much appreciated.
2) Should we be thinking of the upcoming JAFWA annual elections sometime soon? Who wishes to help in the running of JAFWA?
3) We are thinking of letting people sponsor a new anime series once a timeslot becomes free. However, last night proved that no two people had the same idea of what that means. So we will hash the meaning out and try again after that.
4) Are there any artistic types who can design for JAFWA a new mascot? Nobody seems to recognise (the somewhat venerable) Misty May from Daicon 3 and 4.

Saturday 10th April 2010

No Screening 27th March or 3rd April 2010

JAFWA is moving location!

The tentative JAFWA program for Saturday 10th April 2010 is below. To be held in the Collins Street Community Center on Collins Street just off Canning Highway in Kensington/South Perth. Where WestLodge has been meeting for 27 years.

Things of Note:
1) The SGM unanimously decided to move JAFWA’s location to the Collins Street Community Center!
2) Should we be thinking of the upcoming JAFWA annual elections sometime soon?
3) Since on April 10 Westlodge will be using the place before us until maybe 5:30PM, we are thinking of having early Dinner/Sausage Sizzle then screening after, starting from 6PM. Also, we won’t have the usual JAFWA program, but instead a Detective Conan movie and several audience choice preview.
4) Are there any artistic types who can design for JAFWA a new mascot? Nobody seems to recognise (the somewhat venerable) Misty May from Daicon 3 and 4.

No Screening 13th March 2010

The tentative JAFWA program for Saturday 20th March 2010 is below. To be held in the Jones lecture theatre. 401.220

Things of Note:
1) Like previously we will have the Hall from about 12 Midday for Gaming, not anime. Then we have the SGM at 4PM. Normal (ahem, I mean “regular”) anime from 5PM, console gaming beforehand. If you bring your own systems, bring power cables and splitter boards (labelled so you can get them back.)!
2) We are back in the Jones Lecture Theatre 402.220!
3) Prepare for the SGM on March 20.
4) Are there any artistic types who can design for JAFWA a new mascot? Nobody seems to recognise (the somewhat venerable) Misty May from Daicon 3 and 4.
5) Those with keen eyes may spot a clue in this week’s program as to what is the next movie JAFWA intends to screen.

No Screening 27th February 2010

The tentative JAFWA program for Saturday 6th March 2010 is below. To be held in the Jones lecture theatre. 402.220

Things of Note:
1) If you want something to do before JAFWA opens at 5PM, try visiting the Doctor Who club meeting/screening on March 6 from 12:30PM, at the Collins St Centre, Collins St, Kensington.
1a) In other words JAFWA does not have a gaming session before the screening / 5pm.
2) We are back in the Jones Lecture Theatre 402.220!
3) Prepare for the SGM on March 20.

2) We are back in the Jones Lecture Theatre 402.220!
3) We apologize for last session’s “Kara no Kyoukai” being twice the length we expected. Sorry for removing a couple of items to make room. We have the missing “Soul Eater” episode this week.
4) Starting a new series this week - “Fairy Tale”!
5) Prepare for the SGM on March 20.

Special General Meeting - Saturday 20 March 2010

As a few members are aware, JAFWA has been having financial difficulty with Curtin University for a while.

On Saturday 20 March 2010, before the usual screening of JAFWA, the JAFWA committee wish to present to the membership the details and preferred solutions.

As such, we are calling an SGM (Special General Meeting) which we hope all members of JAFWA shall attend.
