Meeting of the SWUG’s in Michigan
Next week Friday (November 7, 2008) there will be a first for the SolidWorks community in the state of Michigan. A joint meeting is going to be held between the West Michigan SolidWorks Group and the Eastern Michigan SolidWorks User Group on the campus of Michigan State University at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory (NSCL).
Dan Bovinich, leader of the EMSWUG, has done an unbelievable job of setting this meeting up and was gracious enough to invite the users of the WMSWUG to join him and his group in East Lansing, Michigan. I am really looking forward to this meeting and the opportunity to network with SolidWorks users from the east side of the state. If you are going to be within driving distance of the Michigan State campus on November 7 I highly suggest you think about attending. The meeting is going to consist of a “What’s New in SolidWorks 2009″ presentation and then a tour of the laboratory. Below you will find a complete agenda for the upcoming meeting.
Now you are probably asking yourself, what is the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory? I cannot give you a good answer to this question; I am hoping that after next week Friday I will be able to tell you in depth what it is all about. All I can do now is tell you to visit their website and take a look for yourself. I do know however that they use SolidWorks for their design work and have been extremely generous enough to invite us all out for a big meeting and tour. I will be sure to post about this meeting next weekend after I get home and let you know all about it in case you can’t attend the event yourself.
