Simple SystemsSimple Systems

I started Simple Systems in 2007, after many years of part-time IT support. Since then I have helped many people all over the Salt Lake Valley, even in "remote" areas like Provo and Ogden. Although I have only been a member of the chamber for a short time, I enjoy strong support and friendship. I am grateful to be a part of this wonderful community and look forward to many years of continued involvement.

Running a small business is fun and challenging, it involves a lot of pressures and long days. However, running a small company allows me to specialize in fast and responsive support for businesses, homes and home businesses. Whether your hard drive crashed and you lost all your family pictures from the past 10 years, your internet will not work today, or your computer caught a virus, I will do my best to help you resolve your computer problems quickly and to your satisfaction. I don't charge to diagnose a problem, and I travel to your home or business to provide on-site support.

So next time your computers aren't working right, or you just have a question, give me a call. You can rely on Simple Systems, because Simple Systems relies on you.

Fight for Air Climb with the American Lung Association

The 5th Annual Fight for Air Climb, formerly known as Tackle the Tower, will take place on February 27, 2010 at the Wells Fargo Center in downtown Salt Lake City. The Fight For Air Climb is a 23 floor climb, which is a fundraiser for the American Lung Association in Utah. The funds raised help to support and sustain our programs: N-O-T on Tobacco, Open Airways for Schools, Camp Wyatt Asthma Camp, Workplace Tobacco Policies, as well as help fight for clean air.

During our event the Wells Fargo Center opens its stairwells to the ALAU and participants. Take advantage of the chance to climb the stairs of Utah's tallest building while raising money for a good cause. Since the event has a limit as to how many participants can climb, we ask each climber to raise a minimum of $100 to help support our programs. Register at LungUtah.org

Where and When

When: Saturday, February 27, 2010

Where: Wells Fargo Center: 299 S. Main Street, Salt Lake City

Time: 9AM-12PM (Starting times will be assigned in advance and will be emailed to participants, posted on the event web site and available at packet pick-up.)
