    Hi
    I am in the midst of a family emergency. I will no longer be able to run the meeting. It is not that much work. Let me know if anyone will step up or I will have to cancel it for now.

    Thank you,
    Michelle Mintz

    Can we still meet this month? Maybe we can figure out co-chairs?

    Hi all,

     

    I support trying to keep the group together, although I can't take on organizing singlehandedly, but I would be willing to help find speakers.

     

    Last month, only two of us showed up for Amy Ballentine's presentation, Amy and me. We need to regroup so that kind of thing doesn't happen again.

     

    I'll be available for the July meeting, unless we take that off because it's the week of the 4th?

    Hi
    Actually the meeting is scheduled for this week 6/11. It is the second Wednesday of the month. 
    If you can attend, there will be small group attending and you can regroup. I am so sorry that I can't lead currently. I have a family emergency which is making my schedule inconsistent

    I hope to be back in end of summer. 

    Michelle Mintz, OTR/L

    Thanks for correcting me, Michelle.

     

    I can't make it on the 11th, but I'll look forward to hearing what everyone decides.

    I think it should have been this past Wednesday, Tineisha. We are supposed to meet the first Wednesday of the month, which might be part of the problem... it can sneak up on you!

    Yikes I was in GR for work yesterday. I am sorry about the miss. I think for sure July should be rescheduled or cancelled. I should be good for August.

    No worries, Tineisha. The meeting didn't happen.

     

    I agree that we take July off and regroup for August.

     

    Anyone else want to weigh in?

    Hi all,  I am traveling and will not be at the meeting on the 11th. Very sorry to miss!  I hope we continue meeting and support moving to another week.

    @Michelle Mintz I’m sorry to hear about your family emergency. I haven’t been attending for the past few sessions but my schedule has availability again and I’m hoping to reconnect. Would it make sense to meet at a park or general meeting place to re-group? Offering as an idea, but I recognize that I am not part of the core group who has been attending consistently. It seems from this thread that a few people are unable to attend this week. Perhaps, pushing off the meeting until August would be best? (And going with the first or third Wednesday of the month, per the other thread)

    Reading Alison's email made me remember that the last time Amy and I showed up at the Qahwah House coffee shop where we had been meeting, there was no one there. Someone finally arrived and opened the door at 8:20 am. I think we need to find a new location.

    Hi all. I have also been absent given client priorities. I like the idea of pausing until August. I am happy to help out where needed. This group has been great, and I have enjoyed spending time with you all! I could participate this Wednesday if anyone wants to connect and network. Otherwise, I'm happy to meet later in July to help figure things out.

    I’m not able to make it this Wednesday but happy to support what others decide. There’s a Panera on Orchard Lake between 14 & 15 mile. It seems to be reliably open and is generally not too crowded.

    Thanks for that location suggestion, Alison. That sounds like a possible option!

    I had talked to someone from the Bloomfield senior center who was open to hosting us. Let me go through my notes. 
    I feel we really need a private room with a tv/screen we can use. 
    I'm not going to be there tomorrow but I'm opening to a zoom next week with a few of us to brainstorm.

    I agree Pam. Finding a private space would be best.

     

    I can't be there tomorrow either, but open to a Zoom later in the month to get back on track and organize for August.

    Love the idea of a private room.

    I’m traveling most of June so I will likely miss the Zoom meeting. Looking forward to hearing and supporting what the group decides.
