Usually if there's an announcement, you can click on the big shiny BOARDS button up near the top (alongside NEWS and the like) and there'll be a link off to the right near the number of active users that links to the announcement.Yeah, I checked the Boards button and tried looking for something like "Announcements" in all the sections. So it's a really hidden board, then?
If there's nothing there (such as right now), then that means there's no announcement to catch up on.
