OUR LAST SESSION IN 2025!
Sirs Jim Burke and Dan Poulin provided a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of the branch 40th Anniversary program presented at our September luncheon. 25 attendees heard how the various videos were captured/created and learned how to make their own family videos with readily available software tools such as those included in the Microsoft Office suite or on the Apple platform. The slide presentation is available HERE.
OCTOBER SESSION RECAP
CEO Christine Sevier presenting "Aging in Place" at our October 24th Session to a full house! Many of the attendees expressed how appreciative they were of the detailed information and advice she shared with our group. Check out her SLIDES and her HANDOUT. Christine invited any and all inquiries from our group should we need further information on this topic.
Our session on Friday, September 19th was awesome with members Dan VanDerZanden and Stan Clarke entertaining and educating the attendees on the Science and Tech for Back Yard Astronomers to explore!

Our Mission Statement
The Technology User Group provides a forum for SIR members to exchange practical knowledge / information on topics that directly relate to the application and use of technology in our daily lives via formal presentations and informal discussion groups. Topics will be driven by members of this activity group. The group will meet in person at the Danville Library or online via Zoom when a physical meeting isn't possible.
Administratively, we are now using the RSVP feature of our web site to manage attendance as we do have a capacity limitation at the Danville Library. Please make sure you update your website profile to include TUG interest, so you don’t miss the notice when the sign-up is available.
