This is a link to Larry Piper's Internet SIG (Special Interest Group) notes. Larry has been the Internet SIG leader since 1996, and he has posted both the agenda and notes for the nine monthly meetings. Also included are (1) downloads for relevant files, (2) a series of 'How To' Tutorials and (3) a Fact Sheet series.

This Internet SIG was formerly part of the Saginaw Valley Computer Association (SVCA), a computer user group of about 50 families in the Tri Cities area. The SVCA has ceased existence as of Oct 12, 2006, but the SIG continues to meet the first Monday of each month at Larry's home.

The Class of 1956, Danville High School, Danville, Indiana.

The Warrior, taken from the basketball floor at the S. Washington Street gym, symbolizes the pride of 80 graduating classes from 1910 to 1989.

Some of the pages (78 total) are: (1) old pictures that classmates have sent to me, (2) scans of everyone's pictures from the 1956 Yearbook, (3) pictures of past reunions and (4) a current contact list--as of Nov. 4, 2006.
