Members are welcome to enter the Zoom conference and mute their microphones.  Please type in your name in the chat box, this will stand as our attendance sheet. If there is a question, type it in the chatbox. Once acknowledged by the chair of the board, you will be unmuted, and you can voice your question or concern.  Members are welcome to share their comments, ideas, requests, etc. during the “Information Forum” that begins each meeting.
