Computers and their applications are fun to use, fun to figure out how to operate, and fun to talk about. The purpose of the Lake Gaston Computer Club is to facilitate all three of these concepts. We do this through meetings, classes and forums.
In our meetings, we explore the capabilities of these digital marvels with presentations by locals and experts from out of town. The forums are informal affairs where interested people meet, watch demonstrations, raise questions and discuss their experiences. Our classes are based on popular applications, and we sponsor a number of active Special Interest Groups on Genealogy, MAC computers and iPads. A "key function" in our operation is the much appreciated technical support group at our Repair Shop. So if you have a problem with your computer, the Repair Shop can likely help you out on Monday mornings.
The Lake Gaston Computer Club helps its members understand the most current computer technology and learn the skills necessary to function in today’s world. It offers something for everyone and provides opportunities to meet new friends.
Whatever your skill level or interest, the Lake Gaston Computer Club has something for you!
Meetings will be held on the second Tuesday of each month from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm.

Then we will elect and install
the new board members for
2026.
Please Note:
Windows 10 reached end of support on October 14, 2025. If you’re still on Windows 10, there’s a way to get an extra year of security updates at no cost. We’ve highlighted the simple steps in this month’s newsletter—don’t skip this if you’re staying on Windows 10; it’s important to keep your PC protected.
We look forward to seeing you there.
Please contact Mark Sminkey if you have any questions. See you at the Lakeside Lutheran Church, 2427 Eaton Ferry Rd., Littleton, NC 27850 at 1:00 pm!
