Hello everyone, Very busy day at the museum. There was an organized tour of 60 broken up into groups of 10, plus another group of 14 mixed in. Rick Lewis, Bill Inderrieden and I started at 10AM and went to 2PM with a 30 minute lunch break. After 2PM there was the regular stream of visitors which Bill took care of and Rick and I left to go home. It was great working with them and it was nice to see how we each did tours differently. We learned from each other. We also discussed how to make our tours better, how to adjust for different interest levels on a tour. I feel that we did a great job today. This group ended up being a general interest group from a summer camp that was approximately 12 to 18 years old, with a mixed of interest levels. We felt we did a good job of teaching them and keeping it fun. The one question that stood out for me was how one kid asked me if we could run Fortnite on the Commodore 64. *facepalm* But there was also the kid who remarked how there was some people upset when the iMac came out and floppy drives were eliminated. Tomorrow 2022-07-07 will be another group of about 50. This is a special day where all the museums are open specifically for this tour group. Thursday the museums are normally closed. Rick, myself, and Doug will be there. ========================================= Jeff Brace VCF National Board Member Chairman & Vice President Vintage Computer Festival East Showrunner Vintage Computer Federation is a 501c3 charity https://vcfed.org/ <http://www.vcfed.org/> jeffrey@vcfed.org
