Greetings! Special Interest Groups also known as SIGs provide an outstanding opportunity for computer users to make contact with others that are using some of the same software.

We have a pretty reliable group of SIG Leaders in this club. Once in a while a SIG leader is not able to attend a scheduled SIG. Usually they try to schedule an assistant to fill in or to post a note on the door. At times, though, things don't work out. Sometimes these inconviences are unavoidable. As a member you might offer to be a SIG Leaders Assistant. When a SIG Leader had to be absent he/she would call you and you could show up and post a note or greet the SIG attendees and explaing to them that the SIG would not meet. If you're willing to volunteer for this simple, but important job, mention it to the SIG Leader at the next SIG meeting.

SIG Announcements:

SIG Possibilities:
Is anybody interested in a Delphi SIG? A Freelance Graphics SIG? A computer Games SIG? A Youth SIG? A Teachers / Educators SIG? A Windows NT SIG? If you are interested in any of these or some other SIG let me know. We might have enough interested people to plan a SIG start-up.

SIG Leader Opportunities:
If you or someone that you are acquainted with has a special expertise with computers you might consider starting a Special Interest Group (SIG). To be a SIG leader you don't have to be the ultimate expert with the software that you are using. There is an excellent article that describes a number of different SIG formats written by several members of the Greater Cleveland PCUG.
