Jim, When I was President of the Southern CT Chapter I did something like
this prior to the beginning of each meeting.  Basically as folks got to know
each other better we changed this over to be the first hour of the meeting
folks could come and socialize and then the last 2 hours of the meeting was
business of the Chapter & State.  I did give the option that folks did not
have to be there for the first hour, but we did promptly start the meeting
at the designated time.

I found this to work out really good, as prior to doing this all we knew
about each other was that we were visually impaired and didn't know how much
if anyone could see or what caused the lack of sight.  It worked out well to
share this and folks could know who to ask their questions.

I think it is a great idea. I really don't know the people that I am a
member with.

Hi Federation Friends,

The At-Large Chapter would like your feedback on a new meeting format.
That is, a speaker meeting using our own affiliate members telling their
stories.

A speaker would have 25 to 30 minutes to share and then take comments from
the audience.The meeting would run from 8:00pm till 9:00pm the third
Wednesday, every other month starting December 2020.

Our Chapter feels it would be a great way to know each other better.

What do you folks think of the idea?

Warm regards to all,

Jim Cronin
