Zoom Logistics

Zoom computer shortcut keys:
https://www.howtogeek.com/669467/zoom-keyboard-shortcut-and-how-to-use-them/

Muting and unmuting:
On Windows, "alt + a",
On the MAC, "command + shift + a",
On a dial-in phone, "star + 6".

On Windows, toggle audio on/Off for all except host, "Alt + M".

If the meeting host mutes everyone, then unmutes an individual, that individual is asked then to unmute themselves.  The individual can do this by hitting enter on the Windows Computer. I do not know if hitting enter on the MAC would unmute you. On iOS, double tapping will bring up a question asking if you wish to unmute.  If all else fails, you can always hit your unmute applications button.

Hand Raising and lowering:
On Windows, "alt + y",
On the MAC, "command + shift + y",
On a dial-in phone, "star + 9".

Elections

There will be no elections this year.
