Howdy Fellow Commodore Users!

C=4 Expo 2009 is now in the past. We would like to hear some feedback regarding this year's expo. Did you like it during the Memorial Day weekend? Would you like it to have been earlier? Or perhaps even June? What did you like or dislike at this year's expo? These answers plus any additional comments you send us, will help us to make plans for a 2010 expo.

Earlier this year, Geocities announced their closure. The date is finally set for that to happen. According to their website, it will happen on October 26th. In the meantime we have plenty of time to get ready for that transition. It has been suggested our club website be absorbed into the http://c4expo.org/ website. I think it is a great idea, since that will centralize our information all on one website. If you have a better idea, please bring it up at one of our meetings or email/phone your ideas to one of the club officers.

By the time you read this I will have finished making the updates to our CCCC website promoting our 2009 expo. To find the information, go to the bottom right corner where you will see the links to the previous expos. They are arranged by date. So far, only three sets of photos are there. If you know of others, please let me know so I can add them to the list, so others can check them out. Also, if you know of any reviews of our expo on the web I would be interested in hearing about those as well.

We need to still elect officers for the 2009/10 term. As of this writing, there has not been nominations for officers. Normally elections happens in May, so we are kind of late on this important business. We have been gaining new members thru our expos, and I would like to see some of those members step up to the plate to help with the continuation of the club. Some officers are holding the same positions for years, and perhaps a new direction is needed for the new members that have joined. I have been active in the club since the early 90s, and have been president for a decade, and newsletter editor before that. One of the benefits of being an officer is not having to pay club dues. Plus you get to be a famous personality in one of the better clubs in the United States.

This month thru the rest of the year we will be meeting at the Retirement Community. So, I'll see you at this month's meeting on July 19th.

Keep on Commodoring!
