WELCOME TO THE SOUTHWEST LOUISIANA PC USER GROUP, INC.

The "SWLAPCUG” consists of people who are interested in learning and sharing their knowledge about computers, in particular IBM compatible microcomputers. The group was originally organized in November 1984. The general meetings are held the second Monday of each month, at the Calcasieu Parish Central Library on Ernest St, Lake Charles, LA. Call any of the officers listed on the first page for the location of the next meeting. The first SIG (Special Interest Group - a small group meeting to learn about a particular program, etc.) starts at 6:00 PM and the General Meeting at 7:00 PM. Dues are $24.00 per year, per family. The money is used to deter operating expenses and print a monthly Newsletter.

Our Newsletter is a combined effort of members passing on their knowledge about computers. The minutes of the last general and board meeting are also published. Articles for the Newsletter can be uploaded to the Internet, ( This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it ) or give to Lane Oliver, our News Editor.
