The next meeting of the Southern California Classic Collectors is scheduled for Saturday, April 24, 2010, at the usual Claremont location. Once again, it will last from 6:00 until the traditional "sometime after midnight." Expect all your SC3 favorites: MANY arcade games, console games galore, Rock Band, [classic computers], and all the rest.
As always, registration for this SC3 event is FREE -- but we MUST have your prior registration to ensure an accurate headcount. Space is limited, so we need to know who's coming! And please remember: since SC3 does not charge admission, we rely on your donations to cover our operating expenses and electric bill (which is always rather high for some reason). The suggested donation is $10 per adult attendee. Thank you very much for your continued donations -- we wouldn't be here without them!

Highlights from the Last SC3 Meeting
Temperatures in excess of 100 degrees weren't enough to keep some 150 gamers from descending on Claremont for the September 26th SC3 bash. This event presented its share of challenges -- the heat, botched cake orders... and hornets. But somehow we got everything together and assembled a party featuring 30 classic coin-ops, more home consoles than ever before, the debut of the SC3 webcam, and a new world record score at Atari 2600 Galaxian.

Who Are We, Exactly?
If you aren't familiar with SC3, we're just a friendly group of videogame enthusiasts who like nothing better than to get together to talk, trade, and play games. We've got a soft spot for games from the "classic" days of the early 1980s, but we love games of all eras, from Pong to PlayStation 3. If you love videogames, you're welcome to attend!
SC3 has made a point of keeping our meetings relaxed and informal, but the atmosphere will include some beer drinking and there may be some R-rated game content. This is an adult get-together where supervised minors will be accepted. Parents should take this into account and please let us know if you have questions.
Hope to see you on April 24th!!
