Welcome to Silvercom Computer & Technology
Silvercom Computer & Technology Club
Carol Folker, President
To:
Silveridge Resort’s Silvercom Computer & Technology Club (SCTC) is pleased to welcome you as a 2020-2021 member. Please read and act on the following information at your earliest convenience.
1. Our usual annual dues are $10 per member. Due to the pandemic, the SCTC Board of Directors recently voted to not collect any membership dues until we are once again able to hold our normal live in-person Monday morning meetings. Instead, this season we will hold “virtual” meetings that you may attend using your computer with the popular virtual meeting application, Zoom.
2. Beginning Monday, November 2, and continuing through the 2020-2021 season as necessary, you are encouraged to use your computer to log into our SCTC sponsored Tech for Seniors “virtual” program on Zoom. The Tech for Seniors program is run by SCTC’s gifted program manager Dr. Ron Brown, a retired Canadian physician.
To join Tech for Seniors, click on www.techforsenior.com and sign up to receive the TFS Newsletter. This twice weekly newsletter includes a “link” to sign on with a single click to the weekly Monday morning 9:30 AM Mesa standard time Tech for Seniors meeting on Zoom.
Of course, it helps to have installed the free version of Zoom on your computer. This is easy to do. Just click on https://zoom.us/download to download and install it. FYI, the “entry door” to attend a TFS Zoom meeting opens at 9:30 AM and is locked at 10 AM. The meeting ends at 11 AM.
3. Ron Brown began these Tech for Seniors meetings last April and has continued doing them weekly with a staff that includes himself, Hewie Poplock—a tech expert living in Florida, Bob Gosticha—a knowledgeable computer security advisor who has done many presentations for SCTC, Ray Baxter—an enjoyable pop music expert, and “Dewey” Kloos—our SCTC VP who does presentations on a variety of computer & technology subjects.
4. The SCTC Board is pleased that Ron Brown has kindly agreed to do special Tuesday morning 9:30 AM Mesa time meetings specially for SCTC members. The first meeting will be Tuesday, November 3 with meetings planned for the first and third Tuesdays each month. Like Monday’s Tech for Seniors meetings, the “entry door” to attend is locked at 10 AM and the meeting runs for around and hour.
Our goal with these special SCTC meetings is to replicate the Monday morning SCTC meetings of yesteryear. There will be time to socialize with each other, carry out club business and of course, provide useful computer & technology information and troubleshooting.
If you have any questions regarding this season’s Silvercom Computer & Technology Club, feel free to send an email or give me a call.
