Class 1 Basic Comp

HERE COMES BASIC COMPUTING 101....

School opens in the new computer lab Wednesday, February 8th at 1:00pm. Again at 3:00 pm if more people sign up. We will shoot for a 1 hour session. Feed back from this class will give us an idea where to go with the next classes. We have room for 7 trainees at a time. Below is the lesson guide for this class.

You will need to sign up at the clubhouse and put your preference for the 1pm or 3pm class. However, if only 7 or less sign up there will be a 1pm class only.

Class spots will be given on a first come first serve basis. Each person will do hands on on their own assigned computer. The only way to really learn.
