North Curry County Macintosh Users

North Curry County Macintosh Users (NCC-Mac) has been serving the needs of our local Macintosh and iOS community since 2009. Each of our monthly meetings has an announced topic, but we always allow plenty of time for questions and general discussion. Anyone is welcome. This is a freebie. We will never ask for money.

We usually meet on the last Thursday of each month, 4:30 PM at the Langlois Library. Occasionally vacation plans and holidays can interfere with our meeting date, time or location. Check our blog <ncc-mac.blogspot.com> for updates or contact Chris Schram <chrischram@gmail.com> to get on our Meeting Announcement list.

For additional content, search for "North Curry County Macintosh Users" at <plus.google.com>. (Trust me, that search is much easier than the real address, which is a mile long.)
