[W2CRA] Cherryville Club Meeting April 10

[Kurt Cathcart, KR2C]

All -

I hope that your time with social distancing is going as well as possible.

As a result of the restrictions placed on us, the Flemington Baptist 
Church has closed it's facilities to social gatherings. This includes 
our meeting for April 10 and perhaps future meetings.

The board thinks that having a remote meeting might be a fun idea.  
Knowing that we had the long anticipated "History of Ham Radio" as told 
by Leslie, KC2EIN on the agenda for April, we feel that this might not 
be a good presentation for our first virtual meeting.  We will push 
Leslie's presentation until May when we might be able to meet in person 
or have a better feel for how the virtual meeting will work for us.

Instead, we are going try a "Show Your Shack" presentation. This would 
be like a show and tell of you ham shack. To make this work, people who 
would like to participate would need to take a photo of their ham shack 
and have it display on their computer screen. When it is your time to 
present, you would share your screen with the people on the meeting so 
they can see the picture of your shack.  Then you would speak to the 
group telling them all about you station.  If you are uncomfortable with 
sharing your screen then you can send me the picture and I will share it 
for you.

As stated, the April 10th meeting will be a virtual meeting. We are 
going to try using Zoom <https://www.zoom.com> as it seems to be popular 
these days.  At the normal meeting time, you would load up your favorite 
browser on your computer or mobile device and join the meeting from the 
comfort of your home.

If you are interested in participating then send me a note so that I can 
put together an agenda.  If your shack looks anything like mine, I'm 
hoping that I have given you enough warning to get things cleaned up for 
the picture. Please look for an invite to the club meeting coming shortly.


Please stay safe.

-Kurt, KR2c
