The Syracuse Go Club in Syracuse, NY, is a chapter of the American Go Association. The game of go is a fascinating 4,000 year-old board game played by millions worldwide. It's called weiqi in China, baduk in Korea, and igo in Japan. Come learn to play! We give free lessons to beginners. Children are welcome. This mail group is for go players in Central NY.
