Apple II Usergroups
Shawn Beattie
to Apple's user group newsletter, only about 10% (maybe less) are
Apple II only. (The rest are Mac or Mac-diluted)
Our local user group is Apple II only, with about 50 members, and I
suspect that we're one of the larger II-only groups left.
Just curious
-sbe...@crash.cts.com-
Jonathan L Cooper
official active member count is, but there are usually only around 10
people who show up for meetings on a regular basis. it's a II only group,
and i understand that they formed back when apple II meant _the_ apple
II. :)
most members tend to be either under 30 or over 60, for some reason.

number of mac-specific groups. The other is Apple.GS.Columbus which is
GS-specific. We have about 40 paid members now with less than a dozen who may
show at meetings.

BAAUG sounds like they have a very large Apple II contingent there
(anyone from BAAUG reading this?) LOGIC, the Toronto Apple UG, has 300+
members split almost evenly between Apple II and Mac (some having both
types). We usually get between 25 to over 50 people to our monthly
Apple II meetings.
Any non-North American UG people here? Like I said in a different
message, I'd like to get a FAQ started for csa2.ug. A major component
should be a listing of Apple/Apple II user groups with name, address,
phone number and contact person. I'll try to get the official Apple UG
database and start weeding out the Mac clubs. ;-)

Same with us (I belong in the "under 30" group... ;-) What do you
guys do for meetings? I find the most difficult part is getting
volunteers to do a presentation each month. Although I know a couple of
our members can keep going up each time, I'd rather not have the same
faces show up at the front of the room every month. Participation by
members is probably a big problem for all user groups. Comments?

I'm a member of the Wellington Apple Users Group, Inc. (Wellington, New
Zealand) - WAUG for short. [BTW, "Inc." means "Incorporated Society" -
we are non-commercial.]
This year, I'm holding the posts of Secretary, BBS Sysop, and Apple
IIgs Public Domain Librarian.
We started in 1984 with about 100 Apple II members (I was a founding
member), and have gradually migrated towards Macintosh users. I don't
have current membership figures (we're just going through the annual
renewal period) but I believe we have about 300 members, including 80
or so Apple II (some of whom also have a Mac).
The majority of our membership live in the Wellington area, but we do
have quite a few members from around New Zealand, and a small number
outside the country.
WAUG can be contacted at the following address:
The Secretary
Wellington Apple Users Group, Inc.
P.O. Box 6642
Wellington
NEW ZEALAND
Our BBS (WAUG Shorts) is available 24 hours a day (but is rather
heavily used). It is open to all members of WAUG, and members of
other Apple user groups are welcome to dial in.
Unfortunately, the majority of our Apple II members are a quiet bunch,
and don't have modems, so our BBS is mainly Macintosh oriented. It
is, however, running on an Apple IIgs, using software originally
written by another WAUG member and more recently by me.
The BBS telephone number (international format) is +64-4-567-1205.
The BBS is not networked in any fashion. If someone would hurry up
and release a version of UUCP for the IIgs, I'd be interested in adding
support for Internet E-Mail connections.
We don't have a central office - the only contact number I could give
would be the home telephone number of the various officers.

Apple II only. We usually have 25+ people at our meetings. We are now
working on meeting at a new location in hopes that more people will come
(where we meet now isn't in the best part of town but it is FREE and the
setup is great - overhead monitors + individual monitors at seats)
We have created lots of smaller, none board member jobs. These people do
come to our board meeting.
One thing we do that you may find interesting. We have cut down our
newsletter and have what we call "In One Place". Information that in
the past would go into a newsletter - be read - filed away - never seen
again is now issued "In One Place". We have a person in charge of "In One
Place". Each meeting you present a special card to the In One Place person
and he gives you copies of info for that monthe (Disk-of-Month description
sheet each month + any other info we think would be of interest to members)
The member than files this info in a notebook and all info is then
IN ONE PLACE.
Also as mentioned above, we issue a sheet each month that tells all of the
programs on that months disk-of-the-month (DOM) with a description of each
program and how to use the program. We find this much more useful than
in the past where we just had a catalog of the DOMs.
If anyone wants more info about the above, I would be glad to give it to you.
Anything diff anyone else is doing????????

Belly up?? Oh No!!!
Thats easy to fix.. You CAN start your own.
What I did here about 2 years ago was announce that I wanted to start a
programming group (IPG). After the third try at holding a 'first' meeting
I finally got enough people interested and finally held regular meetings.
We continue to have monthly meetings on the last saturday.
Because it was mentioned that "we weren't doing 'anything' and that we may
as well be a user group", myself and another member (of IPG) decided to
start a (seperate) user group.
We held ONE organizational meeting which was announced and mostly IPG
members attended though anyone was welcome. From that meeting we decided a
name and meeting place and focus. A friend and I then took a day to set-up
a special checking account which I deposited $200 to start it out, for
safety we made two signatures required. I also rented a mailbox at
'Mailbox Etc' and bought business cards with our UG name, mailbox address
and logo, to be used as membership cards. After the first real meeting of
the user group, we got a newsletter ready to mail out for the next month-
we decided to meet Bimonthly and send the newsletter out when we don't
have a meeting.
Although it is possible to create a newsletter on the GS, my friend
wouldn't stand for it- he says "use the right tool for the job" which is a
Mac (Ugh! heh). Our newsletter is laid out on a Mac, original copy made on
a 600dpi laserjet printer and further xerox copies sent to members.
We still have a little trouble finding articles but have steadily improved
from the first issue.
It really IS *that easy... Good Luck Mauricio! If you need further help,
I'm sure users here can answer questions and give ideas- post away!
(BTW: The User group I helped start is called Apple Two Of Minnesota)

Well, as far as Apple II User Groups go, I just recently got a disk from
Phil Shapiro of Balloons Software that has an AW word processing file on it
that lists about 50 (or more) editors of Apple II user group newsletters.
It's about a 30K file. Should I just go ahead and post it here?
Joe Kohn
(It's not complete, but, maybe we can complete it?)
Jeffrey Smoot
have anything to present. I try to compile a disk of the month so that SOMETHING
gets demonstrated. We also give away a disk of PD/shareware/freeware (as a disk
swap i.e. members bring a blank to exchange or copy) as a reward for just showing
up. Still it's pretty much the same people. Has anyone tried to get on a local
cable access channel?

Joe Kohn
My observations are just the opposite than Jeffrey Smoot's. To me, it seems
as if our user group members have money burning a hole in their pocket, and
will buy just about anything new they can get their hands on.
A little while back, we had Jason Anderson of DreamWorld come by and demo
DreamGrafix. I told Jason that he should bring a huge box of DG, as he'd be
able to sell everything he brought. He didn;t believe me, so only brought 10
or 15 copies.
When Tim Meekins came by to demo SwitchIt, at least 13 people bought it on
the spot.
For that matter, when Kenrick Mock came by and demo'ed his shareware, he
made copies available to people for the shareware fee of $10. Honestly and
truly, there was a line of people waiting to give Kenrick money.
I missed last month's demo, where Andy McFadden demo'ed HardPressed, but I'd
be willing to bet that on Monday AM, after the demo, the phones were ringing
off the hook at WestCode.
On a similar subject, I took an unofficial poll of user group members after
Apple Expo West, and the average person spent $200-$300 at that show.
I realize that by living in the SF Bay Area that I can get all these
programmers to come and demo, because they live here. But...if you're going
to do a demo of anything, get in touch with the company first, tell them
what you're going to demo, and work out a deal where they'll offer a
discount to those who attend the meetings.

Well, I believe our members have the money and yes I think you do have the
advantage ;) and a larger in situ membership to draw from. My point was that
even GIVING software away doesn't bring'em in and good programming like DG isn't
coming along fast enough. That's not a gripe, just a composite sort of statement
from members who have gradually moved to the Mac.

am the one that *gets* to demo them at the meetings. It would be great to
have the programmer demoing - also you probably get to see the demos before
they are released!
>discount to those who attend the meetings.
It's pretty hard to work out a discount - we have found we can not offer
any better deal than mail orders!
I am surprised to find how many //e, //c people we are getting at our
meetings. They are not so excited about the new IIGS software that's out.
We have found we have to do some //e, //c stuff at each meeting so we will
not lose these people - that usually means rehashing old software.

Joe Kohn
Jeanne Chappell - I ran for the VP position, because in my group
(GravenStein), it's the VP who is in charge of setting up demos and in
charge of the training sessions. It's my way of sharing my expertise with my
neighbors, and using my connections to help my local friends.
Generally, when I do a product demo, I contact the company and tell them of
the demo. Generally, they'll send along some promotional materials, and
quite often, will make a 'special user group price' available to those who
attended the demo. Off-hand, I can't think of any company that hasn't given
assistance in setting up the demo.
I see your domain is in Denver. Thinking about it, you could get Randy
Brandt to come give a demo on UltraMacros, Jawaid to give a demo on
Procyon's software, Joseph A from Sequential Systems to talk about their
many products, or even Lance Taylor Warren to talk about GBBS. Off the top
of my head, they all reside in the Denver area. You could even try to coax
jason Harper to come visit and demo SuperConvert. And, I'm sure there are
other Apple II developers who live in your area, too.

What? Each seat has its own monitor connected to the computer up at
the front?!? How did you guys manage to get *that* for free?!? ;-) I
think pay $150/month to rent a banquet room at a library (2x2.5-hour
meetings a month) and the adjoining locker room (to store the computers,
newsletters, disks, etc.) The place is basically a stage with a
pulldown screen (we supply our own overhead projector) and lots of
chairs. The place isn't even carpeted. ;-) We are currently looking
for a free (or cheaper) solution, since we already spend $1650 during
the 11 months that we meet for room rental.
> We have created lots of smaller, none board member jobs. These people do

Are your board/executive meetings open to the general membership?
Our Board of Director's meetings are "closed-door", but I'm afraid
nothing would ever get done if we let everyone else in on it (we don't
get enough done as it is!) I hope the minutes of each meeting as
published in our newsletter is satisfactory.
> The member than files this info in a notebook and all info is then
> IN ONE PLACE.
Interesting idea to consider... maybe we should three-hole punch our
newsletters and sell custom-made "Maple Orchard" binders to safekeep
back issues. I'll ask Beta Reproductions if it costs any extra to use
punched paper.

Our Apple II librarians publish descriptions of new disks every
month, but they never single out a particularly good disk. Maybe we
should start doing that (disk sales have been rather poor lately). Take
10 minutes or so at the beginning of each meeting to demo the new
software and then take orders afterwards. ;-)
Brian Tao

If you get enough of your own original articles, you can contact
other Apple II user groups for a newsletter exchange. I think most
Apple II UG's allow you to reprint their articles without prior written
consent as long as you credit the original author and source.

We also need mailing address, contact person and phone number if
possible. An e-mail address (for those with Proline BBS's) would be a
bonus too. I think for the purposes of the FAQ listing, only the data
pertinent to the Apple II should be listed first. We could have a
NOTES: section with additional information on the UG.

Must be nice, Joe. :) How many Apple II members do you guys have
anyway? How many show up to the meetings? Will Tim, Jason, Kenrick,
etc. fly up to Toronto for a few meetings? ;-)

This reminds of me of another point that should be included in the
FAQ. Anyone have information on the various Beagle Buddy-type programs
for usergroups? I think you can also be a Seven Hills Partner too.
There must be more of them out there. You can get discounts and free
upgrades if you register one representative at your UG.

Do you have the same problem where it's always the same person (you)
doing the presentations each month? It used to be like that around here
(me up in front), but since I've had class on Tuesday nights for the
past year, I had to break that habit. Do you think members really mind
if the same person does the demo time and time again? I try to
encourage members to give demos, but people have the aversion to
speaking to a crowd for some reason... ;-)
Brian Tao

I know the feeling... I've tried to stay away from new product demos
because most of the new stuff is GS-only and that doesn't reflect our
member profile (most don't have GS's, although that's starting to
change). Last month we had a meeting on hardware peripherals. Two
members brought in their systems for demonstration. One was a GS, one
was a //e and there wasn't a free slot between them. :) This month
will be on Apple II magazines. Unfortunately, it will also be the first
time most members will hear about InCider/A+'s demise. :( The July
meeting isn't set, but I figure I'll demo Kangaroo or something like
that.
Someone actually came up to me one meeting and said "I just bought
Your Money Matters and it's a really great program. I don't think I
want to do a presentation on it though, since I don't like speaking in
front of people." Gee, that really helps...
> Has anyone tried to get on a local cable access channel?
One of our directors mentioned that in passing at our last board
meeting. There was a usergroup that had a weekly series on their local
community station. I don't remember if it was an Apple UG or not. I'll
try to get the name of the group.
Joe Citro
Two of us from the Omaha MACH user group drove down to one of their meetings
a couple months ago just to visit with a sister group. We really enjoyed
our visit. I wish we had a meeting place that had 5 inch TV monitors
at alternating seating locations so that everybody could get a good look
at the demonstrations. The "All in one place" is a good idea too, they
were nice enough to provide copies to us. Another good idea they have is
a little form on which you can ask, anonomously, a question you feel is
too dumb to ask out loud. We liked that so much we started printing that
form in our Newsletter. We keep a box at our meetings just for those forms.
Hello to all the nice folks at ABUG

Dave Harvey
We're an Apple II only user group and meet the first Saturday of each month
at the Fairington Community Center, in Arlington, Virginia. We have about
80 members in our organization and have been in existance since 1981. Most
of our meetings have about 20-25 attendees. We publish a monthly
newsletter, have a disk library, paper library, telephone support lines for
members and our own BBS, Pro-novapple that runs the ProLine BBS software.

That's exactly what this newsgroup is here for! I'd suggest posting it
in ascii format (print the file to disk as a text file) and throw it on
the net. People who belong to those groups or know about them could
post verifications/revisions/etc.
I also recall having an AppleWorks database file of Apple // User Groups
somewhere. I think it was on an issue of TimeOut-Central (on disk). If
I find it, I'll print it out in text format and post it to the net.
It'd make a great starting place for an FAQ (in addition to the people
who have already posted here about their newsgroups).

Okay, the file was a database file of Beagle Buddies from the first
issue of TimeOut-Central (Sept 1990). The file had the following
categories:
Usergroup
F/L Name
City,State,Zip
Daytime Phone
Nighttime Phone
I printed out a labels-style text file, which I'm including in this
article. I'll also post the orignal ADB file (Shrunk, BINSCII'd) on
comp.binaries.apple2 if you want it for any reason.
If you can verify the existence of any of the usergroups, verify that
the usergroup no longer exists, or can provide any additional
information, please post a response here so that whoever will be
creating an FAQ has something to work with.
And please delete the groups you don't know anything about when you
repost. We don't want replies with HUGE amounts of quoted text.
Thanks. :^)
Note that the records are sorted by zip code (they were in that order in
the database), so that should make things easier to find.
There are also some international usergroups at the very end of the
file, so even if you're not from the states, this may apply to you, too!
Finally, I'd like to know if any of the Iowa groups are still around. I
still have my //c at college in Ames (Story County), Iowa at Iowa State.
:^)

> Duh! Yea, that was kinda obvious wasn't it? Sorry about that. :<
No prob, Mike. ;-) BTW, glad to see you're receiving the new
newsgroups now. :)
> Okay, anyone wanna offer suggestions for a format?
I haven't really thought about that yet. We can collect as much
data as we can first and enter it into a database. Then we can use AW's
report formats and/or mail merge capabilities to format the data into
something usable for the FAQ. For starters, let's go with these DB
categories:
Usergroup name:
Postal address:
P.O. Box:
City:
Province:
Postal code:
Voice:
BBS:
Fax:
Contact person:
Service area: <-- cities, counties, regions, etc. that are
within reach of the usergroup
Newsletter:
Editor:
Meetings: <-- Monthly, bi-monthly, etc. and dates (third
Tuesday of every month, etc.)
Misc. notes: <-- Leave about four blank categories
Not everything will go into the FAQ (it won't fit!), but perhaps the
full database can be kept on an FTP site and updated every month. Also,
if someone wants more information, he or she can always contact the
usergroup directly. So far so good?

Heh heh... I should forward this to our newsletter editor. We had
an "Ask Dr. Bob" type of column a little while back, but I haven't seen
it since.

I think for the most part you'll find the file hopelessly out of date.

>Gosh, Dave - you _must_ have missed at least one!
:^) Well, *I* didn't compile the list...I only remember it being on the
Timeout-Central disk. I figured it was as a good a starting point as
any.
Of course, any usergroups who aren't listed should post information
about their group!!
