President Frank Beavan called the meeting to order in the Fiesta room at 9:00 a.m. There were 10 members present. It was announced there would not be a meeting next Friday as Show and Tell would be using the Fiesta room. We have submitted a meeting time change for next year of Thursday aft. 2:00 to 3:00 instead of Friday morning.
Ann showed her Magic Jack (cost $20.00) that attaches to a portable phone through a computer enabling one to make free phone calls. It works more efficiently with a desk top rather than a laptop computer.
You tube is a good source of helpful information and is free.
April 1 will be our last meeting of the winter/spring season.
