[NJAGDU] NAGDU Board Meeting

[Ginger Kutsch]

Hi Raul,

Has the board considered trying a different night of the week to see if member participation would increase? It may be that attendance is low because others also find Sunday nights challenging.

Also, I'm wondering if the meetings are recorded? I know other organizations record their board meetings so those who could not attend may listen in later.

Thanks,

Ginger

Hi, unfortunately, Sunday evenings are the best ones for now. If we had more participation, we might be able to consider other times. However, we also have a social get-together which we call Yappy hour. This takes place every other Saturday at 3 pm Eastern time. The next one is coming up this Saturday on October 31.

Please reach out if you have further questions.
