EuroSCUG’s May meeting was an inhouse one at which members had the opportunity to attend two small group sessions instead of the usual one. Sessions covered genealogy, photography, Google Keep and Markdown note taking apps as well as the usual Beginners Group and help desk. Members are often torn between two groups so this opportunity was very much appreciated.
At the next meeting, at 10am on Wednesday 5th June at Moruya Golf Club, Professor Helen Hasan, will be speaking about Living Connected, a not-for-profit community enterprise which has a team of trained mentors who run drop-in centres and undertake home visits on the NSW South Coast to assist older people with their computers, tablets and phones
This service is currently being extended to serve the Eurobodalla. Following Professor Hasan’s talk there will be an opportunity for those interested in learning more about the organisation, either as a mentor or a client, to speak with her.
After morning tea, small group sessions will feature demonstrations of Polar Steps, a popular travel App, Snapseed, a photo app for tablets, our popular genealogy group, a beginners group and a help desk.
During June EuroSCUG is offering a 4 session Beginners Course at the Moruya Golf Club from 10 am – 12 noon on June 11,13,18 and 20. This is a member only course.
