The week between move-in and classes is a truly magical time in Denton. The yearly injection of wide eyed optimism that the students bring is refreshing. As always, dodging cars heading the wrong way on Oak or Hickory keeps the townies on their toes.

On Saturday, Aug 27th, Denton's cheekiest charity is hosting a movie night on the courthouse lawn. This season's selection is Pokemon: The First Movie because Glen thinks he'll get a high CP Snorlax out of it somehow. That, and we see it as a great way to utilize all of the Pokemon Go players who are already hanging at the 'gym' on the corner of Hickory and Locust for a great cause.

Pokémon Go is a recently released mobile game that augments your real life by adding cute little monsters to your phone camera. By now you've surely noticed the hoards of people gathering around the square at all hours excitedly swiping upwards on their phones. We are no strangers to the game ourselves. While I'm sure I have caught far more 'mon than Glen has, we've all been spending far too much time with the app. We recently found Denton's self-appointed "Geek Guru" and recruited him to aid us in our quest to catch them all. Last week, he shared some of the background on the game with us. Today, he has some tips that will help you in playing the game in Denton and how it relates to Niantic's previous mobile game, Ingress. Read on for more!
