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

Want a K-Lug Shirt?

Our first batch of shirts came out rather nice, especially for the price. We have folk who didn't get in on the first order. Please browse the deals here, and contact Tim if interested. (We need a minimum order of 4)

Planned Technical Meeting: Thursday September 13th

Location TBD

Presenter needed

Lunch: Thursday September 20th

11:30 am, at the Apache Mall food court. Look for geeks sort of near Barnes&Noble. If the weather is nice, people from downtown may choose to walk together to lunch, it's a 30 minute walk.

6:30 pm, East Park, for Frisbee golf. If you don't have a frisbee, you can probably borrow one from another K-LUGger, or bring a shoe to throw.
