Let’s be honest, very few of us will be sad to see the back of 2020.
It was very much a mixed bag for the club. We got off to a tremendous start to 2020, with some great meetings, educational sessions and even a debate. Then the virus hit and we’ve not been able to meet in person ever since.
That hasn’t meant that we’ve not been able to meet at all though. In April, the club held the first virtual meeting of it’s 58-year history, and we’ve been meeting every two weeks ever since.
Initially, the aim behind those meetings was just for us all to keep in touch. As time went on and we realised we weren’t going to be able to meet in person any time soon, we changed tack and the meetings became more like regular club nights.
This has been a big change for all of us. Some of our members had never used the technology before so have had to learn. Very few of us were used to speaking into a camera so have had to learn how to adapt our speaking styles.
Hopefully at some point this year we’ll be able to get back to meeting fact to face, but for now the virtual meetings continue. Our first of the year will be Monday 11th January, and all are welcome to join us.
