Thursday's Meeting Will Be Virtual
From President Melanie:
We are going to stick with Zoom meetings for the time being until after the board meets and discusses some of the logistics of Zoom and in-person meetings (for whoever is comfortable) happening simultaneously, as well as other details to work out/what that looks like. We could even go to a occasional social meeting mixed in - so there is much to discuss!
