This Week:

June 12:    Our first commercial meeting. There will be no charge at the door. The presenter is paying the BCP.

Power surges from the utility grid and the unique problems of protecting one's home from lightning strikes are the topics of this presentation. There's an old dentist joke that asks, "Which teeth should I floss? Only the ones you want to keep". Learn the basics of what surges are and how they "find" the electronics and other appliances in your home or business and the paths they follow. Products and services for protecting your valuable equipment will be discussed at the end of the general presentation, as there are proven solutions to this ever present problem.

June 19: Carla Black : Heliconias in general, their natural history, adventures in their habitat, as well as care in the garden.
