Virtual Meeting #2 - February 7
On February 7, we will have our second 2022-23 TSO Virtual Meeting. We hope you will consider joining us!
Registration Link: https://forms.gle/ViZueVPbpaEshLeaA
Registration Closes: February 3
I've included the selected books below if you want to participate in the book chat portion of the virtual meeting. These books were picked based on the last survey results. We appreciate those who took part in the book selection process. Thank you! The book chat sessions will happen at different times if participants want to do both.
Registration closes on February 3.
IMPORTANT | Interested in Leading a Breakout Session?
Note: If you would like to display the Zoom meeting on a screen at a Chapter meeting or watch with another member at someone's home or work, those are definite participation possibilities. If you choose to view the Zoom with another person or group, only one person would need to complete the registration if the Zoom will be displayed for others to see in an in-person setting. Of course, people are welcome to participate independently too. We want to give members several ways to experience this virtual event.
