When Rick Baldree started this chapter, he hoped to have members, non-vendors members, do some of the presentations to the group. You don't have to do an hour long presentation, we could have multiple speakers on various security topics in one meeting. If you have a topic you would like to hear or present for any meetings this year, please send an email with the details.
Please share this information with others who may be interested. There is no charge to attend our meetings.




Questions, Comments, Suggestions?

Please send an email if you have any questions, comments or suggestions for guest speakers, topics or general improvements. I look forward to seeing everyone at the meeting.
