6:00-7:00 pm – Introduction to Computers class

About the Meeting:

Our general meetings offer a friendly forum for people interested in computers at all user levels, from novice to expert.

Before the General Meeting, between 6:00 and 7:00 PM in the Petaluma Room, just down the hall from the main meeting room, there is a free Introduction to Computing Class. Ask at the reception table outside the meeting room for directions.

Hungry? Have dinner before the meeting at Rings Restaurant, at the north end of the building.

From 6:30 to 7:00 PM Door Prize raffle tickets are given out to members, memberships are renewed, etc. You can stand around talking to people who know lots and lots about computers (Look for Steering Committee members wearing nametags. They love to chat about computers, especially their own).

The meeting usually follows this schedule:

• 7:15 pm – Announcements, followed by an open session during which members and guests can ask the group for help or opinions.

• 7:30 pm – Main presentation.  Click here for a list of prior speakers.

• 9:00 pm – Closing with a raffle of various hardware, software and books.  There are often quite a few items from which to choose. Each member gets a free raffle ticket, both members and non-members may purchase additional raffle tickets.

Future meetings:  Our general meetings are normally on the fourth Monday of the month.  There is no meeting in December.  The May meeting is sometimes a week later than normal when necessary to avoid Memorial Day.
