The season continues online

Saturday, May 16th, 2020

The club have now conducted 4 meetings using Zoom video conferencing – on 2nd, 16th & 30th April and 14th May.

With cameras in place and technology mastered, meetings have featured speeches and evaluations followed by a “chain” topics session where one member gives a topic to another member, who gives a topic to the next member, and so on until all have spoken. Then each evaluates the topic  by the member to whom they had given a topic.  The sessions have all been good fun and enjoyed by all.

The feel might be different from speaking to an audience in the same room but is far better than not speaking and it provides the opportunity to learn both new technology and a different technique.

The next meeting will be our AGM on Thursday 28th May commencing 8.05 pm (to allow time for the applause for the NHS at 8 pm.)

On 2nd April the club meeting went ahead using Zoom video conferencing.

With cameras in place and technology mastered, those present enjoyed a “chain” topics session where one member gave a topic to another member, who gave a topic to the next member, and so on until all had spoken. Then each evaluated the member to whom they had given a topic.  The session was good fun and enjoyed by all.

The feel might be different from speaking to an audience in the same room but it was far better than not speaking and it provided the opportunity to learn both new technology and a different technique.

The next meeting will be on Thursday 16th April commencing 8.05 pm (to allow time for the applause for the NHS at 8 pm.) It will feature speeches, evaluations and more topics!
