MacCamp is our quarterly day-long event where members from SMUG and MIAMUG get together to share Mac knowledge and experience.
MacCamp starts at 10:00 a.m. and goes until 4:00 p.m. Snacks will be provided but please bring your own lunch.
At this MacCamp, several members will be showing off their iPads and iPhone 4s.
MacCamp is at Saginaw Township Fire Department #1 located at 6171 Shattuck Road in Saginaw. Visit the Meetings page for directions.
