| == Planned Technical Meeting: Flood Relief...Date Flexible == | | == LUG News == |
|
| |
|
| Location CompuSwap - (Near Whistle Binkies South)
| | We generally meet monthly for technical presentations (2nd Thursday of the month, 6 pm, virtual), and monthly for socializing (varies). We no longer meet monthly for lunches, if you are interested in reviving this tradition please [http://k-lug.org/About contact an officer]. |
|
| |
|
| The current proposal for our Oct 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.
| |
|
| |
|
| We plan to volunteer during one or more of these time sessions
