Welcome to Genesis Sci-fi Club
The Basingstoke science fiction club
This web site is in the process of being revamped completely. Yes, we know it looks dated. This will be remedied soon-ish (very heavy on the -ish; the webmaster is realllly lazy). Until then, you can consider what you see here as a sort of archive. Go ahead and click the links on the side bar, but keep in mind that much of the non-fictional information is woefully out of date. As the site gets updated, a subset of that information will be copied over.
Upcoming Meetings
Over the course of the pandemic, the Genesis club accumulated a number of members who cannot attend in-person (usually because they're too far away, some by multiple thousands of miles). As a result, the Genesis meetings are currently being held as both in-person and online using the Zoom platform. Connection information will be posted here, and on social media (hopefully) no later than an hour before the meeting starts.
The next scheduled meetings are as follows:
-
In-Person Gaming Night: Tuesday, 31st October, 2023 at 19:00 GMT
This month's meeting is cancelled due to Hallowe'en.
-
Book Club Meeting: Saturday, 4th November, 2023 at 14:00 GMT (07:00 PDT / 10:00 EDT)
