Title: Scotland Area Group SCOONs online meeting 17 May
Post by: Ian McAulay on May 14, 2021, 20:19
Hi ScOONers

We have another meeting coming up on Monday 17 May at the usual time of 8pm.

Tom Alexander and Brian Elder will be hosting the meeting and Tom will be telling us about his experiences with 3D printing. As usual, there will also be a bit of show and tell, so if you have any interesting photos or videos to show, have them ready for screen sharing.

It's a Scotland Area Group meeting, but it's virtual via Zoom, so if you'd like to drop in, please feel free to.

The meeting details are at the bottom of this posting. As ever, feel free to copy these for your own use, but please DON'T post them in any other public forums.

Ian

It was an excellent meeting (as always  :) ). Thanks to our hosts and presenters and a special thank you to our guests that dropped in for the evening (or whatever time of day it was in your location). I'm sure a summary of what took place will appear here presently.

We are far from being the first group to meet via Zoom under current conditions, but the technology certainly demonstrates that Area groups need not be limited by travelling distance to attend in person. It would be interesting to see if members in other locations are considering setting up 'Virtual' groups? I guess they need not be limited to 'Area' groups but could be other online gatherings of like-minded members and they need not be scheduled regularly.

On that note and in the hope and anticipation of meeting members in person in the future (exhibitions etc.) we have decided do drop the 'Virtual' tag. We have also settled into the notion of calling ourselves 'ScOONs' as well as the Scotland or Scotland Area/Region group and I hope these changes appear in future Branchlines in the 009 Society News.
