Howdy Fellow Commodore Users!

How would you like to help work the CCCC table at the Louisville Commodore Expo? Again the folks at LUCKI are sponsoring this event, scheduled to be held during the weekend of Memorial Day (Saturday May 25). Roger Hoyer and yours truly will be there, but it would be nice if additional members could help us out. Don't forget, your club is taking care of the expenses, and you have plenty of great demos to view and always a good display of Commodore hardware/software to drool over (or maybe even buy).

I'll let their club's announcement describe what's planned:

General Expo Information

The LUCKI Commodore Club is pleased to host the Spring Commodore Expo 2002. We hope you will support the next Commodore Expo this spring in the Louisville Area.

If possible, please come on Friday evening, because the LUCKI Club will sponsor a Hospitality Room for all visiting expositioners! We will ply you with free soft drinks and snacks and all the Commodore conversation you'll want to enjoy!

This also gives "demonstrators" an opportunity to 'set up' the night before. We have been assured that our meeting room will be kept locked overnight to protect the equipment. Officially, the set up time will be 8am to 9am on Saturday morning. The Expo will run from 9am to 5pm, with breakdown time from 5pm to 6pm. We will go out to eat together that night, probably at a Ryan's restaurant.

Events, Demonstrations and Speakers

Maurice Randall and Jeri Ellsworth have already agreed to attend and make demos.

As soon as we have a list of who will be giving demos or speeches we will list them here. Be sure to check the Expo 2001 page to see the events that took place at last years Expo. We will have a forum or discussion the following morning on the "Future of Commodore" in which we will review the Expo (Saturday) and look to the year (or years) ahead.

We expect to use Sunday to have seminars or special programs in specific areas. For instance, Maurice has agreed to have a four hour program to help beginning GEOS programmers. Hopefully, we will have something equally interesting in the other room for those not into GEOS or programming. Sunday's schedule is still flexible. (For that matter, so is Saturday's!)

------------------------------------------------------------------------

We know not everyone can make it, but we hope each "user group" will try to send at least one representative. This is, after all, the best opportunity we have to meet and share with many of those who make this community so terrific!

From there you can also get reservation information, and see information on last year's Expo.

At this month's meeting, we will be opening up nominations for the officers of the 2002-2003 term of office. So, if you want to be nominated or know someone that would like to be nominated, this is the opportunity to make it on the officer's list for 2002-2003. See you on April 21st!
