I thought you might find this of interest. It is a message sent to our 515 members and (again I think) is part of our successful club strategy / execution.

We have had about 10 video conference meetings with great speakers in the past year. <http://www.naplesmug.com/NMUG/Meeting_Videos.html> presents links to most of the videos. (we had a great one last week with TJ Luoma of TUAW that we were unable to record due to operator error)

We have also started our annual set of 4 hour classes spread out over 10 weeks during the peak time for people to be in Naples. This link lets you get to our Classes site. <http://www.naplesmug.com/Classes/>

These classes are $ makers for our club but MORE important, they meet the needs of our members

Perhaps we are unique with such a huge % of retired people but it works for us.

And no, you can't take a class unless you are a member

Subject: Next Wednesday NMUG meeting and Mt Lion Registration
Date: January 16, 2013 3:21:22 PM EST

The club had about 75 members attending today's informative video conference on 1Password.

This is an important message about the meeting for Wednesday, January 23rd
Because of the Library program on Spanish Conquistadors we can NOT meet at our normal time

The NMUG meeting on 1/23 will start at 1 PM
This will be a meeting devoted to the iOS 6 devices (e.g. iPad and iPhone)

If you come at / about our normal meeting times PLEASE do not enter the meeting room as you might disturb the Library's special program

Now to NMUG's Classes

The Computer Fundamentals course on 1/21 is still open for registration but only a few seats remain available.
The registrar, Eckart, contacted those who had registered prior to Sunday with a confirming message yesterday.

I'm pleased to announce that I have enabled the web site registration "Click to Register" for Mt Lion which is a 2 session course ($20 ) starting on 1/28. The second session is NOT a repeat of the first session; it will cover items that were not covered on the 21st.

As warned previously, if you sent in a request for Mt Lion (or any other of the later courses prior) to this your request was put into the Bit Bucket (trash). You will have to re-request.

This is expected to be a popular class with more students wanting to take the course than our class room can support.
Thus registration will be on first requested basis
If necessary a Wait List will be maintained so requesters can move into the class if members have to cancel their attendance.

The link to the Registration panel for our web site is

The soft tabs across the top are Descriptions, Schedule, Registration, Directions and Class Notes (that needs to be updated)
