User Group Conference In New Zealand
The Wellington Macintosh Society Inc. has decided to endeavour to forge better links with other Mac User Groups in New Zealand and in order to achieve this are organising a joint Expo and Conference. We have now booked the concourse area and Soundings Theatre at Te Papa, the Museum of New Zealand in Wellington on Friday 31 May and Saturday 1 June for the Expo and the Johnsonville Community Centre on Sunday 2 June for the User Group conference.
We are calling the expo the 'Digital Solutions Expo' and will use Apple's digital hub concept as the basis. The plan is to have the expo on Friday and Saturday with a major keynote and demonstrations in the theatre. This seats only 328 so pre registration will be necessary. There will be at least four seminars on the Friday and two on the Saturday and preference will be given to user group members for both the keynote and seminars.
Conference meeting and any workshops will be held on the Sunday. There will also be workshops with topics such as how to improve membership numbers, what to do on meeting nights etc.
The aim of the conference is to provide both an opportunity for like minded individuals to get together and secondly to form a national body with membership comprising all Mac User Groups to coordinate and foster communication and transfer of resources between the various member groups. It could also be a vehicle to enable Mac users in areas not served by user groups but wishing to belong to a Mac organisation to communicate, share experiences and information with other individual members and associated user groups.
Anyone who is a member of a Mac User Group in New Zealand is invited to participate at the conference and also be able to attend the seminars and keynote speech including a digital hub demonstration.
Third Annual User Group Officer's Conference at Trenton Computer Festival
My name is Scott Vincent and I am the President of the Amateur Computer Group of New Jersey, the first computer end-user group in the country, and President and Co-Director of The Trenton Computer Festival, the first computer end-user computer show in the country.
On the weekend on May 4th & 5th, 2002, the ACGNJ and the other Trenton Computer Festival (www.tcf-nj.org) organizations will hold TCF-2002, our 27th year. The festival will be held at the New Jersey Convention Center in the Raritan Center in Edison, NJ.
Aside from being the oldest and longest continuously running end-user computer show, TCF is very unique. Besides the many vendors selling both old and new computers and accessories, there is a complete schedule of very informative talks and forums about pretty much any topic in computing you may have interest in. Outside, we have a flea market where bargains on both new and used computers and all sorts of other items can be found.
On Sunday May 5th at 10:00 am, The Third Annual User Group Officer's Conference at TCF will be held. Regardless of what kind of computers or aspect of computing your organization focuses on, you will benefit from this forum. Officers of computer user groups from all over the northeastern United States meet and discuss issues that effect the starting up and running of users groups. Ideas that have worked for their groups may be exactly what you need to improve your own organization. Feel free to share your successes with us.
I cordially invite you and the other elected officers of your user group to join us at TCF. I would also like to take this opportunity to request that you let the members of your organization know about the Trenton Computer Festival and perhaps consider organizing a group outing. Please check out our web site, (www.tcf-nj.org) which will answer any questions you may have about TCF including the schedule of Talks and Forums throughout the weekend.
Please respond back to me at mailto:[email protected] with the names of officers from your organization that plan to attend the User Group Officer's Conference. A nametag for each registered officer will be available at the information booth in the lobby of the Convention Center upon their arrival anytime during the festival.
Thank you for your time and I hope to see you at TCF in May.
