== Planned Technical Meeting: Flood Relief...Date Flexible ==


Location CompuSwap - (Near Whistle Binkies South)


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
