~ Arthur C. Clarke

About Us
The Technology Committee comprises an informal group of volunteers presently anchored by Select Board representative Lonnie Taylor and the town's contract Network Administrator.
Based upon the decisions, priorities and needs of the deciders, we are involved in supporting just about any town technology-related efforts, among them this very website. (See our report in the latest Town of Raymond Annual Report for a comprehensive list.)
Much of the group's interaction occurs over e-mail due to our incompatible real-life schedules; but when we do get together, it is in the equipment end of the Broadcast Studio on the third Thursday evening of the month, beginning around 6:30pm to talk about our various projects' progress, share any tech buzz, and lasting until we've compared notes about our favorite sci-fi shows and authors.
Interested?
Everyone is welcome to attend our meetings; just check "This Week at a Glance" or the web calendar to make sure it's happening. Everyone is also welcome to contact us, ask us questions, or even to join the committee. Send an e-mail note to committee chair Laurie Forbes and use the secret word: electrons.
