[Mn-abs] Meeting Via Zoom Today

[David Andrews]

Dear Fellow Federationists,



Please take a few minutes to read this message concerning the new 
method of joining monthly meetings of the Minnesota At Large Chapter.

Beginning with the next At Large Chapter meeting to be held on
Sunday, February 17, at 7:15 P.M., we will be using the popular and 
highly accessible Zoom
Cloud Meeting platform. This will give us more options to join meetings, the
opportunity to host webinars, and the ability to share audio/visual
information in real time.

USING ZOOM

  Although traditional conference call dialing is available, we recommend
using the free Zoom app for the best audio quality and functionality. The
app is easy to use and is available on iPhone, iPad, Android, Windows, and
Mac.

If you don't already have the app installed, you will be prompted to do so
when activating the below Zoom link. Installing the app ahead of time will
give you the opportunity to customize it to your preference. You can 
also download the app from www.zoom.us
