Subject: [crw-talk] Zoom Meeting how to

Good evening, I have seen a few requests regarding using Zoom in
general and as a possible use for us to at least meet virtually. I am
definitely in favor of this. For those unfamiliar with zoom and its
use;1.It is free to use and can be used on either a smart phone or
computer.2. you can either download the application/program or even
just dial a phone # if you dont want to use data or dont have a data
plan. (you would not be able to view any video just hear audio)3, the
free account allows up to 100 members and a limit of 40 minutes for a
meeting. The next level allows some storage and social media streaming
as well as longer meeting times
How it would unfold;1.The host would set up a meeting and send out a
link via email/text 2. you would click on the link(I would recommend
that you already set up Zoom on the device of your choice to make it
happen faster3. depending on how the link was set up it should take
you directly into the meeting. you can turn on a webcam if you wish or
not. 
If you go to the Zoom website it has walkthroughs to help guide you in
its use. 
I have set up a zoom account with pro already to host meetings.
Depending on how the membership feels about its use after a few tries
we can look into something specifically for the club's use.I would
like to try an officers meeting this thursday at 1800(6pm) and then a
full meeting Saturday at 1000 to at least try to keep with our normal
schedule. I will send out invites 1 hour prior. It will include all
the info to dial into via phone(Chicago #).
Please let me know if this will work for both officers and members. 
In service
