Presenter needed


The current proposal for our Sept meeting is that we dig in and help Steve Severson with a United Way Flood Relief Project.
The recent flood in SE Minnesota meant that many victims lost their computers. The United Way Tech Team (and Steve) are coordinating a couple of hardware build parties to ready 200+ CompuSwap systems for deployment to people, nonprofits and schools throughout SE MN.
K-Lug helped with this type of event after Katrina and it is actually a lot of fun! A little cleaning, a little installing of diskdrives and memory and a little boot testing.


Still not set it stone, but it appears the hardware build parties will be:<br />
Thu. Sept 27 <br />
Wed. Oct 3 <br />
Sat. Oct 13 <br />
Sat. Oct 27
