Dear NARFE Members,
Today, we held our annual membership meeting virtually. There were a number of technical difficulties that delayed the start of the meeting, and, once on air, continued to affect audio and video output. We did successfully resolve those technical issues, and the meeting proceeded. The National President and National Secretary/Treasurer delivered their reports with a quorum of members present, as required by NARFE Bylaws.
We do humbly apologize for the delays and technical problems. Throughout the pandemic, NARFE has been committed to providing services at the same level it has throughout its storied history, but as President Thomas mentioned in his presentation, 2020 has been one for the record books. This was our first time convening the Annual Membership Meeting virtually, and it may not be the last. We learned some important lessons today, and those lessons will be applied to future virtual meetings to ensure that these technical issues will not happen again.
We’re thankful to everyone who attended in spite of the challenges, and we appreciate your patience. We will make the meeting video available online by about 2 p.m. tomorrow, October 29. You will be able to share the video with other members who could not attend. A transcript will also be available later this week.
