Members would share their experiences and help each other to get the most from their computers and be informed about new technologies. The Mission Statement of the Club is:

• To promote interest in, and the use of, computer hardware and computer software generally;
• To foster educational activities; and to organize and sponsor special events;
• To encourage public awareness of computer hardware and software.

The members are made up of people who have the same interests, questions and concerns. We all have one thing in common; a desire to network with people to help us understand, and encourage us in discovering more about computers; and gaining exposure to emerging technologies.

CCUG is made up of many different people from power users who make their living using their computers, to the majority, who like computers but need help in determining what to do, what to buy and how to use. We all have one thing in common; a desire to network with people to help us understand, and encourage us in discovering more about personal computers, and gaining exposure to emerging technologies

The monthly meetings usually feature a Question & Answer period, an intermission for socializing and refreshments (at cost) and a presentation by a professional in the field of Information Technology (IT) if possible. Special Events provide the opportunity for an informative look to what's coming in the near future. They provide a perspective of software, hardware, or communication products to come. Among all the great reasons to join the club, this ranks near the top. Monthly meetings are the large view, out to the horizons of Personal Computing.

Members' own computing questions are better addressed in Special Interest Group SIG meetings that take place throughout the month; such as a World of Warcraft group.
