I live in Madison and my employer has a policy that I am not allowed to travel out of state without going into quarantine for 2 weeks after my return. Unfortunately, attending the meeting would make me unable to do my job and is the reason I have not been to the field the past couple of months. Is there any way portions of the meeting could be live streamed or otherwise made externally available? Thanks.

I can bring a camera and a microphone and record the meeting for the club if I get the go ahead.

The Soaring Safety Foundation (SSF) presenter has asked us not to record the presentation.
Everyone’s best option to attend this presentation is to be at the hangar no later than 10AM on Saturday, Oct 10. The hangar will be cleared of most equipment and we will set up chairs for social distancing. Be sure to bring your mask. It should be good weather on Saturday but cool so we will keep the doors closed and run some heaters. If you can arrive at 9AM to help with set up this will be most helpful.
However, we understand that not everyone will be able to attend in person. Therefore, we will be providing a Zoom meeting link by Friday afternoon via email. Keep an eye out for it. To optimize the Zoom meeting video performance we will be temporarily turning off our Wi-Fi system and our security camera system.
Let me know if you have any questions.

Reminder! 2 days until the safety meeting. All members are encouraged to attend and plans are in the works to Zoom broadcast for those that just cannot be there. Start time is 10:00 AM. There is much to be learned and improvements to be implemented.
