Our General meetings cover a wide range of subjects. Typically, such a meeting will involve some PCS business or the distribution of information
concerning up-coming meetings and other opportunities in the local community.
As warranted, there will be discussion regarding the latest computer security threats, new products and other items of interest to the membership.
Often some of our members give presentations about subjects in which they have some specialized knowledge. For example, Phil Ball's Windows
Tips 'n' Tricks is a constant crowd pleaser.
Recently, we have had other members give talks and demonstrations about backup techniques, GPS equipment and virus and spyware removal. While some of these speakers obviously have their business interests in mind, their presentations are related to our mission and our members often receive significant discounts should they wish to purchase the products.
We don't forget the social niceties at PCS either. Once a year we get together for a social meeting and have a picnic! These are usually held
at a ramada at different local area parks. The club provides chicken, soft drinks, parking permits and picnic supplies. The attendees bring a dish to share.
The festivities start off with a pot-luck feast which is followed by a short presentation and a raffle which features computer-related prizes.
The entire event is a great opportunity to get to know fellow club members in a more informal setting than is usually found at online meetings. Visit our
Picnic Page for additional pictures and information.
