Re-posting Dan's original from the General section to hopefully increase viewership. ?

They've been lots of fun.

See bolded section below for Sunday's details...

If you need some Zoom peer-coaching feel free to reach out via Private Messaging.

 

Original Post

Please join me from the comfort of your own comfy chair or survival bunker for an hour of virtual socializing and storytelling with your fellow NSPN paddlers-in-exile.

Two options to video chat this week:

Tuesday, Mar 31, 5-6PM: (happy hour and socializing. for discussion: what's the best 3-mile stretch of paddling in New England?)

Sunday, Apr 5, 10-11AM: (brunch-time socializing, plus tow-belt show-and-tell! we'll do some therapeutic tow-belt braiding, and share our favorite rescue stories.)

 

For either session:

At the anointed hour, click the following link to join: [removed after the event]

You'll need a laptop computer, phone, or tablet with a front-facing video camera and a microphone, and you'll be prompted to run some free video conferencing software from Zoom when you join the meeting. If you haven't used Zoom or other video chat/conferencing software before, you might want to click the link below a few minutes ahead of time, to give yourself time to test your video and audio settings. For the best video quality, try to pick a spot in your house with plenty of light and make sure the brightest light is in front of you, and not behind you! (sit facing a window or lamp, with a wall with no windows behind you). For anyone using Windows 10, you can click start and type Camera to use the Camera app to preview your camera setup and appearance.

These are meant to be light and airy social occasions and to offer an escape from the news cycle, politics, and negativity. If you get booted or muted, that's why. :) 

 

If there's something you'd like to share with or ask of the group, feel free to mention it in a reply below so people can prepare in advance, or simply bring it up in the video chat.

Al is looking for people's experiences with the Cetus MV vs the Cetus.

Pablo and I are curious about what people would like to see from a ready-to-print NSPN PDF map library.

Thanks, David! I had meant to post these to the Trips forum, and will post future "video trips" here going forward. Hope to see lots of you at "brunch" on Sunday!

Thanks for setting this up. 

I will try to join you in the second half hour.  I have a zoom tai chi class from 10-1030.
