[NJARC] Other InfoAge Events

[Ray Chase]

One of the newer groups to the InfoAge family is MARCH (Mid Atlantic 
Retro Computer Hobbyists), they collect and display old computers (first 
it was old transistor collectibles, now it's vintage computers, what's 
next, antique iPods?).  Anyway, they are having a Vintage Computer 
Festival on Saturday May 13th in the Marconi hotel at InfoAge from 9:30 
- 6:00, admission is $10.00.  This will be inside in the dinning room 
and there will be 10 to 20 vendors set up.  So if old computers are your 
secret passion, stop in.  The MARCH group will have custody of the 
Grabbe computer collection and if you think boat anchors are big and 
heavy, some of these guys collect old IBM main frames.  They have done a 
lot of work at the hotel and are a great asset to InfoAge.
Another InfoAge group, The NJ Historical Divers Association is having a 
New Jersey Shipwreck Symposium on Saturday May 6th also in the Marconi 
Hotel from 2 to 6 PM.  If shipwrecks are your bag, they have some 
interesting presentations scheduled.  Admission is $15 , reservations 
are required, if interested, call 732-776-6261.
