Zontar Posted December 13, 2014 Report Posted December 13, 2014 Hey guys! Here is the SPACE Newsletter for December, 2014. If you're unfamiliar with SPACE, it's an Atari club called the Saint Paul Atari Computer Enthusiasts that have been around since 1982. Very cool group of people, you can check them out online at http://www.spaceweb.us/ Here is the SPACE Newsletter for December, 2014: SPACE Newsletter - December 2014.pdf

Rumple Foreskin Posted December 14, 2014 Report Posted December 14, 2014 that looks like a cool user group zontar. not too often you see people get together in clubs that way anymore. the newsletter even looks made on an old computer. I wonder if you have to live in their region to join the club?
Yo-Yo Posted December 14, 2014 Report Posted December 14, 2014 @Zontar, do you know if they accept out-of-state members, and what is included with membership? For $15 I'll join up!
DegasElite Posted December 15, 2014 Report Posted December 15, 2014 I like the fact that there's still an Atari group in the United States. It seems like it may be one of the last ones here in this country. I think there is one other. It's called Suburban Chicago Atarians (or SCAT), based in Glen Ellyn, IL. I don't know, however, if they are still in existence. There was another one in Cleveland, OH. I am not sure if they exist anymore either. It seems that the Atari SIGs are more entrenched in Europe, since you have big groups there like ABBUC in Germany for starters. Atari computers went over much bigger in Europe than in the US. It's too bad there aren't more SIGs here in the States.
Fire_In_The_Valley Posted December 16, 2014 Report Posted December 16, 2014 I'll join too. Sign me up for both of these. I didn't realize clubs like this were still in existence.
DegasElite Posted December 19, 2014 Report Posted December 19, 2014 If you want to join, it might be a good idea to talk to Lance at Video 61 and inquire about it. He might know something about it since he lives in Minnesota. That would be your best bet, I am sure.
