The Retro Computing Club currently has monthly meetings where we discuss cool things that are still happening in the scene as well as share project ideas and inspire one another for new ideas or concepts.

Feel free to check out the clubs photo gallery showcasing previous meetings.

We also help each other out with various repairs and modifications to our retro computers. Another cool thing we do is get together to buy, sell or trade various computer hardware and software.

At the present time we co-host our meetings with the Commodore Computer Club in Vancouver, WA at Pied Piper Pizza.

The Retro Computing and Video Game Club is an extension of the Commodore Computer Club meetings.

Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.
