General Meeting
The General Meeting covers topics of interest to all members and guests.
The typical meeting usually starts with a 40 minute Q&A session and/or presentation on software and web sites of general interest. This is followed by an update of relevant club and SIG announcements.
Next, comes the main presentation, often provided by a representative from a nationally known computer company, or an expert from a local firm or government, or sometimes an officer of the club or other volunteer. This generally lasts approximately one hour, and is followed by a question and answer period about the presentation.
Each meeting concludes with a door prize drawing.
