CAJUN CLICKERS MISSION STATEMENT
The Cajun Clickers Computer Club, an independent nonprofit
organization, is dedicated to promoting computer literacy throughout the
community through a variety of comprehensive computer information opportunities

Distribution of knowledge is done through printed materials, computer
information seminars and workshops, radio broadcasts, electronic help media and
a network of “sharing the knowledge” by and for members and the community at
large.
ABOUT THE CAJUN CLICKERS COMPUTER CLUB
The Cajun Clickers Computer Club was formed in August 1989 by a
small group of employees at Gulf States Utilities Nuclear plant in St.
Francisville, Louisiana. The original focus of the group was the purchase of
5-1/2 inch floppy disks at volume discount pricing. It soon became apparent
that the group had varied interest and experience with PC’s and wanted to
expand their knowledge. They decided to meet on a regular basis to begin
sharing their knowledge with each other. Thus the motto “Sharing the Knowledge”
was created and has been in existence ever since.
The club now has a membership exceeding 1650 families in the Baton Rouge,
Louisiana area. Membership is open to the general public.
