AmiWest 2013 Show Schedule
AmiWest 2013 Show Schedule
Here are our show events for AmiWest 2013, presented by the
Sacramento Amiga Computer Club (SACC). As important as this
schedule is, interacting with our sponsors and exhibitors is also
a very important part of AmiWest. And there are always the
AmiWest surprises - spontaneous and unplanned, they are a great
part of what makes our show creative and fun! Catching up with
friends and making new ones is another big reason why AmiWest is a
success year after year. What we do is provide the place - it's
the people that make the show!
Many thanks to our show sponsors and exhibitors. Please be sure
to patronize their exhibits, do business with them, and thank them
for their support.
Friday, October 18th: Doors open at 6 PM for the Classic
Clinic
Our traditional Classic Clinic will provide an opportunity for
those who want to have their classic Amiga machines updated in
some way to receive assistance from experienced technicians. If
you are interested in bringing your machine, please let us know by
emailing what you are bringing and the assistance that you need to
amigaprez@amiwest.net.
Free food will be served, as long as it lasts!
Saturday, October 19th: Doors open at 10 AM

Seminars: This year, we are giving an order for the seminars but
not a time schedule. A time schedule usually suffers from gaps
and overages; we hope that this idea flows better.
