Investment Forum
These meetings will be forums where
members can share how they use
their computers to access investment
information, explain what they do, and
what expectations they have in their
investments. The purpose of the meetings
is to share and learn from each other and is
not an investment club. For meeting dates,
times, and general information, contact:
Carol Skarda at trekkercrs@comcast.net or
Wayne Johansen at wajohansen@yahoo.com.
Fee: Free to members; $2 for non-members
