6:45pm | Members of the Oracle Development Tools User Group who were visiting Long Beach last weekend for the group’s annual convention took some time out to volunteer with the Boys & Girls Club of Long Beach in celebration of Community Service Day on Saturday, June 25.
The ODTUG is a global, independent not-for-profit that offers education, support, advocacy and networking opportunities for technology developers who work on Oracle’s object-relational database management systems.
More than 100 convention attendees spent five hours working on various clean-up and beautification projects at the Boys & Girls Club’s Freeman E. Fairfield Westside Center. The volunteers organized books and installed shelves in the Learning Center; painted and performed light construction work in the Art Room; and networked computers, painted the blackboard and set up tables, chairs and cubbies in the Teen Room, according to ODTUG.
It marked the fourth year that ODTUG members volunteered in the communities in which their annual convention is hosted.
