[Massachusetts-NFB] May 12, 2026, Cambridge chapter meeting

[Marc Kelley]

Hello Shirley,

Thank you for the message and for letting us all know. I am sad to hear of the news of switching to a total virtual option. While I think virtual is a good option to have for many people if they run into transportation issues or illnesses, etc. I feel like Going a total virtual route, just eliminates the social aspect of being part of the community, which is greatly important to me in this new journey.

I know due to attendance that is probably why you are switching to remot virtual but I think there must be a better, more engaging way for us all to get together once a month. Does the date always need to be on a Monday evening at 6 PM? Have you asked the chapter members what other dates and or times might work with their schedules to see if there might be an overall better date and time for us to all meet?

Just throwing out ideas and feel free to ask me any questions. Thank you for all your leadership and support!

Best,
Marc
