Welcome to The Computer Club's Information Page
The Computer Club is a teaching organization dedicated to helping you
become a better computer user. We help all levels of users, from the raw
beginner to the very experienced user. We offer classes on all types of
hardware and software programs, guest speakers who keep us current on the
latest developments in computers, and question and answer sessions where
all computer related subjects are welcomed.
A Look Back At The Beginning
The Computer Club was formed in January 1995. At the time there were
forty-eight charter members who joined together to begin The Computer
Club. In February of 1995, The Computer Club established its first set of
by-laws. By year-end, the membership had swelled to 157 members.
Club Officers for the first year were:
- Gerry Hoyt, President
- Fanny Baldacchini, Vice-President
- Jeane Burditt, Secretary
- Wolfgang Piaskowski, Treasurer
- Helmut Joks, At-Large Board Member
- Fran Kosnik, At-Large Board Member
- John Murphy, At-Large Board Member
Using a computer is frequently a frustrating learning experience
if no one is around to help, but through the generosity of our many
faithful members, who teach and make home visits, many new computer users
have become proficient in their use.
