[Karin Hartner]

While I prefer in-person meetings, I certainly understand the concerns re the work and commitment required in setting up or cleaning up having been involved in helping to organise meetings for several years and would be happy to assist with same again if it were so decided. I would be for a compromise of one or two mid-afternoon weekend social/business meetings during the months when most of us do not paddle. these could be done as one-of events in different locations. I’d be interested in scouting venues. The club surely has the funds to spend on occasional rentals.

Finally–I am not comfortable socialising on Zoom, hence the preference for connecting with others in person.
