In-person Meeting July 1

We are planning to have an in-person meeting at Vito’s (see website) on 42nd Street NE not far from Edgewood Rd. It is much quieter than the first place we tried, and our old place Scott’s is not open evenings due to a scarcity of staff.

RSVP, please, to get an estimated count.

Mike has established another way for us to discuss, using the Discord app. If you want to check it out, ask for an invitation link that will let you join.

On-line meetings

If we need to have on-line meetings we will use Zoom, which works well. See prior newsletters for information.

In-person Meeting June 24

We are planning to have an in-person meeting at Vito’s (see website) on 42nd Street NE not far from Edgewood Rd. It is much quieter than the first place we tried, and our old place Scott’s is not open evenings due to a scarcity of staff.

On-line meetings

If we need to have on-line meetings we will use Zoom, which works well. To participate, you can use the Zoom app on your smartphone, laptop, or desktop computer with a microphone. Use of a camera is optional. You can also call in with any phone but it would be long-distance if those rates apply to you.
For further details and the meeting ID number, contact us.
In the meantime, if you want a restaurant or take-out meal, it would be good to patronize our usual host, Scott’s Restaurant. Check their hours.

In-person outdoor meeting June 17 (weather permitting)

We are planning to have an in-person meeting at Vito’s on 42nd Street near Twin Pines and Edgewood Rd, at outdoor tables on that date, if the weather is suitable.

We are looking for a quieter meeting place. If you have a suggestion, let us know. Last we knew, Scott’s was not open evenings due to lack of staff.

RSVP, please, to get an estimated count.

On-line meetings

We have gone to on-line meetings while new cases of coronavirus are frequent in the area and people haven’t had a chance to get vaccinated. The meetings work well. To participate, you can use the Zoom app on your smartphone, laptop, or desktop computer with a microphone. Use of a camera is optional. You can also call in with any phone but it would be long-distance if those rates apply to you.
For further details and the meeting ID number, contact us.
In the meantime, if you want a restaurant or take-out meal, it would be good to patronize our usual host, Scott’s Restaurant. Check their hours, as they are shortened due to a scarcity of staffing.

We are planning to have an in-person meeting at 30-Hop‘s outdoor tables on that date, if the weather is suitable.

The restaurant is at 951 Blairs Ferry Rd NE, with an entrance on Rockwell Drive, diagonally across from the Target store.

RSVP, please, to get an estimated count.
