I’m still awaiting confirmation from Ken, since it sounds like (from talking with their office staff) their office meeting room is in use at that time so it would have to be 100% remote. I’ll offer him a few more times when most of us could make it, in case Ken and the officers really want to use their meeting room. But for now let’s plan on this.

If you want to join, please fill this out ASAP so I can get back to him with times.
