A computer club is an organization that meets regularly to build, converse about, and assist others with computers. They emerged in popularity in the late 1970s with the rise of the personal computer. Especially prior to the emergence of the world wide web, obtaining technical assistance with computers was often onerous, while computer clubs would gladly provide free technical support.
Modern high-school computer clubs often compete in programming competitions and run a club website; they may also help school faculty and students with new technology (not just personal computers).
