All of the Senior Techies were winners in this class!

After spending lots of time in the judging booth looking at all the pictures we took at the senior techies introduction to digital camera class, we have to say that everybody won the first annual (or perhaps semi-annual) Senior Techies photo class. A few photos are posted here for prosperity.

We had overflow attendance and lots of people got the chance to learn about shooting digital photos. We spent a little time with the scanner getting ready for next week's more extensive scanner class.

The Senior Techies classes are aimed at teaching beginning computer skills to those senior citizens who may not be as familiar with computers as their grandchildren are.

Senior Techies topics range from computer basics to setting up an e-mail account to next week's class on e-mailing photographs. See our events calendar for details of upcoming classes.

This June and July we are also trying out a new program called "Senior Techies- Computer Practice" which will be an open lab with computers, a scanner, and digital cameras where seniors can drop by and practice thin they have learned in the previous classes and ask any questions that may have come up in the interim. The continuing interest in the classes has been a source of great pride for us here in the library. As long as seniors keep signing up for the classes, we're committed to adding them to our schedule.
