2015 Christmas Parade Highlights
2015 Christmas Wow, what another amazing Christmas Parade for the Comox Valley.

This year saw the geeks bring the holiday cheer with a Charlie Brown theme. The sun was shining and the weather was perfect for a great community event.

No prizes this year (which makes a first) but although we didn't get the recognition of the judges, our friendly geeks fed off the energy of our MTG fans and had a great time.

Thanks to Bob's wife, Michelle Wells, for making all the costumes and the whole MTG team for making it a great day

Keeping the Community Warm

We like giving at MTG and with the recent vote for a tax to help house the homeless this cold December, there are some other great initiatives in the community we would like to draw attention to:

EDAS - Everyone deserves a smile
This band of heroes is taking donations of women's and men's, gloves and toques to distribute this christmas. Drop off locations are as follows:Ecole Puntledge Park Elementary, Queneesh Elementary, Brooklyn Elementary, Robb Road, Royston Elementary, G.P Vanier Secondary, Mark Isfeld, Huband Elementary, Cumberland Community School, Zocalos Cafe, RE/MAX, Comox Community Centre, The Lewis Centre and Seeds Food Market.

Dawn to Dawn - Raising the Roof
At both of the My Tech Guys stores you will find Toques and Socks for sale by donation to help find long term solutions to Canada's homeless. Don't need a toque? You could always go for the double whammy by buying the toques and taking them right for donation to the above! That would give us a smile :)

Comox Valley Toque Project
Toques don't grow on trees, but around the Comox Valley you will see touques in bags hanging from them available to anyone who needs them! Two Courtenay women picked up the idea online and have been getting others involved and knitting up a storm ever since. You will notice the hats are in areas where the homeless of people at risk congregate. The project is looking for more wool and volunteers to keep the community warm this Christmas season.

Updates, Don't Forget
Most of us are familiar with the little pop-ups we get asking us to install updates.  While they only take a few minutes to complete, many of us are guilty of postponing them or just ignoring them completely. But keeping up with these computer updates is actually very important when it comes to having a healthy and secure computer. These updates are just as important as having an anti-virus program. Sometimes the automagic updates can fail so we suggest checking to make sure you have the latest versions of the following once a month. 

 Some of the most common updates are:
 
If you have any questions or feel its been awhile since you've done any updates, call us and book an in-home service call or remote service call 250-890-1065
