DECEMBER  2006

Hunters Run Computer Club Members and Guests
intrigued with Buying and Selling on eBay's Online Auction

IT TAKES A GOOD AUDIENCE in addition to a good instructor to produce a good educational experience. That is what happened on Tuesday evening, December 5. Over 80 club members listened intently, asked searching questions and received clarifying answers from Pamela Tabak, our Director of Education, as she toured the features of the Microsoft XP operating system. It was a signature evening, not only for the success we can claim for it and the hunger we saw for more knowledge about the basics, but that it also served to launch the idea of organizing sessions solely for computer beginners.        ( More details about this as the program develops.)

WHAT FOLLOWED THE NEXT WEEK was an introduction to a fascinating feature in the world of computing. Once again, 82 members were made aware of the power of an on line auction. Buying and selling on E-Bay has become a virtual industry. Everything from pocketbooks to houses, cameras to boats, you name it, you can buy it! If we were in the dark, Pamela has helped lead us to the daylight. From here on we should be able to join the 21st century shopping miracle! Well, almost….

OPEN HOUSE

NOVEMBER 2006

Hunters Run Computer Club Members and Guests
anxious to begin the first meeting of the the season

Joan Sobel New President of the Hunters Run Computer Club  Introduces
Pamela Tabak - HRCC Director of Education & Webmaster
and Bob Balogh - BRCS President

WHAT A GREAT WAY TO START THE NEW YEAR! Eighty-five members and HR residents were in attendance at our first meeting of the year. They saw a professional power point slide show produced by our Director of Education, Pamela Tabak, that introduced our officers and board of directors and described the twelve session workshop program that has something for everyone.

After a drawing for the winner of our membership sign-up program, we heard from that dynamic President of the Boca Raton Computer Society, Bob Balogh.  In his own inimitable way,  Bob presented a potpourri of protective programs to make for safe computer use. This could have been one of those topics that compares to watching the grass grow, but not with the flair and stage presence that Bob has for lecturing. It was a fascinating presentation and none of those present will ever click on an attachment again without knowing where it came from!

Who could ask for anything more...well, we did...and this is what we  got...ten new members signatures, bringing our total membership to 185. Hunters Run can be proud of their computer club.  We are bringing computer learning to our campus and having fun all the while  ...AND WHAT A GREAT WAY TO START THE NEW YEAR!

OUR FIRST WORKSHOP is scheduled for Tuesday, December 5. Pamela Tabak will present Microsoft XP with all its bells and whistles...and they make plenty of noise! This is a basic must for all users.

The snowbirds will be down and we look for a record number of attendees. You know the place, the Men's Card room and the time, 7:30 PM. Pamela spends a great deal of time preparing for these sessions and you will be smarter and more informed when you leave than when you arrived...and that's a promise!
