Howdy Fellow Commodore Users!

During February's meeting, a discussion came up about the various Commodore expos happening this year. Everyone was sad that there will not be a Louisville LUCKI Expo this May. A few members brought up a suggestion that CCCC pick up the reigns and throw an expo either in May or June. If you have never been to an expo before, you probably aren't aware of the background tasks that are needed to successfully pull off a good expo. All these tasks require cooperation of volunteers and organizers willing to delegate the tasks to the best individuals. Did you notice that last sentence indicated more than one person (volunteers, individuals, organizers)?? That's right, it takes more than one or two people to pull this off, and in order to do it right, we need the backing of fellow members to do it right. It would be great to see the club as a whole put on a good show for the greater Commodore users of the world. If Louisville, Chicago, Las Vegas, Toronto, Okemos, and a host of other cities can do it, why shouldn't we give it a shot? We pinned the date down to June 3 and 4 at the Drawbridge Inn. Full details you should hopefully find here in the newsletter. Let me know if you can volunteer to help in some way, or would be willing to help support this venture.

CinciClassic 2006 is now in the history books. I would like to take a moment to thank those individuals that helped out at the CCCC tables. A number of folks in attendance stopped by the CCCC both to talk with us, play a few games, and browse thru our inventory we had available for sale at the show.

I managed to see a tv cameraman from WCPO TV channel 9 attempting to videotape a young boy playing a game of Cosmic Crunchers on the Vic-20. Unfortunately, the little boy saw the camera and got scared and ran away, probably before the cameraman had a chance to set up the shot completely. I took the chance to hand the operator a copy of our C=4 Expo flyer, and indicated he might want to check us out in June. He mentioned he would show the flyer to his group, and went on.

Roger was targeted for an interview by a group that broadcasts to the North Carolina/Virginia via cable's local access tv stations. I believe the show is called GamebotTV. They have a website where you can download episodes that have already aired, if you have a fast internet connection. The current video is 150mb download!

We opened up the nominations for elections at our March meeting. As you are probably aware, we have a few openings that have been vacated since the last election. If you want to give it a try, let us know you want to be nominated!

Keep on Commodoring!
