WoodwardMUG Meeting Information

Our meetings take place in the Woodward School Katherine Bacon Library, although it is small quarters for our expanding membership, standing right now at 47 members. We usually meet twice a month during lunch and our midday "study" period, 11:20-12:20. You are welcome to bring your lunch, or watch for eNews announcements concerning our famous "Lunch Buffet", our code name for ordering lunch from local restaurants. Get your lunch reservation in the day before to be sure you are included, as our "Lunch Meetings" are quite complicated to run, and we could use a break.

Activities

The 2008-2009 year of the WoodwardMUG Computer Club at The Woodward School is winding down. Lots of exciting happenings took place with both in-person and iChat AV video conferencing guest speakers. Fundraisers focused on our annual barbecue party and our vending machines in the cafe with 100% of profits going towards the purchase of new computers for the lab. If you’d like to help keep them filled with drinks and snacks next year, sign up in the lab.

During 08-09 our fundraising efforts allowed us to purchase another new iMac and a MacBook for our mobile podcasting studio.

The WoodwardMUG Podcast Team has resumed production of podcasts. If you are interested in participating, please stop by the lab and sign up.
