1) General Interest
Do you
want to serve on the TBCS Board of Directors?
Audio/Video Studio Opens
Do you want to serve on the TBCS
Board of Directors?
We'll be electing a few new Board members in December.
Do you want to serve? Our nomination process is open to all TBCS
members. All you need to do is to email the
Club Secretary
and ask that your name be placed in nomination. You should plan on
attending the General Monthly Meeting on December 11th at the Largo
Cultural Center (yes, our December meeting is held on the 2nd Tuesday
instead of the 3rd - make sure you mark your calendar). That's the
night that the election will be held. I will also be asking for
nominations from the floor at this week's General Meeting. You may
nominate someone else, or you may even nominate yourself.

Audio/Video Studio Opens
We are rolling out some A/V Studio services! We
are prepared to do conversions of vinyl records and cassette tapes
on the audio computer, and 35mm slide and negative scanning on the
video computer. We have a few mentors standing by to help you get
trained and certified on the equipment. Currently, the studio is
open only on Wednesdays and Fridays during the day - by appointment only!
There will be some glitches as all of the details are
not worked out, but if you want to get scheduled, you need to send an
email to the
Club Secretary
to let us know what service you are interested in using.
We have determined that the charge to use these
resources will be $2.50 per hour. Initially, blocks of time
are being scheduled in 2-hour increments.
