Pre-registration is to be completed by 8pm on Thursday, July 9th.
3. Once you’ve registered, you’ll receive a link to join the meeting. Do not share this link as it is specific to you. Virtual check-in to the meeting will be from 1:00pm-1:20pm. During this time, you will be held in a virtual “waiting room” until the Credentialing Committee grants you entrance.
4. You will be able to vote on motions by answering “Polls” that will appear automatically on your screen. Interact with these polls to cast your official vote.
5. If you will be assigning your vote to a proxy, you must indicate so by filling out your proxy form. Link to this electronic form is forthcoming.
6. Non-members will be able to access the meeting via FaceBook Live and Youtube. They can comment and interact with us, but cannot vote from these platforms.
7. Results of all motions will be held until 3 business days after the meeting to provide time to validate votes, and will be announced to you via email message, with additional notifications published on our social media accounts. Nominees for leadership on the Board will be made aware of their results privately before an announcement is made to the general membership.
8. This meeting will be interpreted.
9. We will host a dry-run of the meeting on Friday, July 10th following at 6:00PM, if you would like to join. This session will allow members to get familiar with using zoom prior to the Business Meeting.
