Mineta International Airport hosts a small group of TYPs on an all-access tour on February 24th.  First, enjoy a reception hosted by the airport followed by a full-tour of the facility.  Unless you end up working on the airport staff, this may be the only time you can see these areas of Silicon Valley’s cutting-edge travel hub…

January Social

Bay 101 hosted over 75 TYPs at the first monthly social for 2010!  After a sellout success at The Brit in Almaden this December, TYPs enjoyed generous samples from what is possibly San Jose’s best kept secret – Bay 101’s restaurant, Sutter’s Broiler.  Mixing, mingling, and tours led by veteran gamer, Tom, were a  hit.

November Habitat for Humanity Build

1 11 2009

Habitat for Humanity

Swing a hammer for a cause.

On Saturday, November 7, TYP joins Habitat for Humanity Silicon Valley to help construct a home for a family in need.  Over the past 23 years, this organization has helped hard-working, low-income families earn home-ownership.  With the recent completion of their 50th home in Silicon Valley, Habitat for Humanity looks onward to complete yet another house for a deserving family, and invited TYP to participate!  Even if you’ve never held a hammer, volunteers of all skill-levels are welcome – Habitat for Humanity provides all the training you need!

To demonstrate our appreciation for the valuable work Habitat performs for the Silicon Valley community, there is a $10+ donation suggestion to join the build.  All proceeds will go toward the completion of  the home, and will be presented to the organization that morning.

If you cannot attend the event but are so-inclined to make a donation through TYP to Habitat, it is greatly appreciated.
