# New Haven Sinclair Study Group

The New Haven Sinclair Study Group was a unique user group in that the member’s ages range from 8 to 14 years old. Initially, members built their own Sinclair ZX81 and wrote programs for the computer. Later members received assembled a ZX81 or TS 1000 computer to learn how to use and program.

Chris Baldwin, the adult leader, founded the group in 1982. Chris was a teacher in one of the alternative schools in Hew Haven.

The group was featured in an article in Timex Sinclair User, [The Great Connecticut Kit-Building Experiment](http://localhost/article/the-great-connecticut-kit-building-experiment/).
