[Board] April 9 Board Meeting

[P Dowey]

The meeting this morning with Zoom went well. It is an intuitive ap & I found it easy to use on my phone. I will use my desk top or laptop when document sharing in the future, though.

However, Jeremy’s suggestion (and offer to use his account, TY) to use GoToMeeting might make the meeting more accessible to all Board members who might not have access to Zoom.
I have not yet heard from everyone  about their ability to access Zoom but I’m sure all could phone in at a minimum.

I still plan to test the Zoom ap soon. Anyone up for a virtual cocktail hour conversation?

We are in this together and we’ll get through it together!

>> Just jumping in here as I use Zoom and G2M all day every day.  The free account of Zoom is great however you are limited to a 40-minute meeting.  I have a Go to Meeting account that I am happy to use for the meeting if you want.  There is a dial in option for voice only and a video option with screen sharing.  The participant can choose how they want to join, Laptop, Desktop, tablet, smartphone or regular landline.

All indications are that it will be a good solution if every member has the capacity to use it.  Please let me know if you can or have downloaded the Zoom app. I would want to have a trial run before the meeting.
