We have a Meetings Team to ensure that our hybrid chapter meetings go as smoothly as we can make them. We could use help with these roles. Each role has specific, finite tasks, for those of us who like to complete helpful tasks! If you can volunteer or for more information, contact Holly Jorgenson.
  • Meetings Coordinator: Ensures all roles are filled before each meeting.
  • Hardware Setup Backup: Could step in for Glen when he’s unavailable. In charge of setting up the computer and audio equipment.
  • Hardware Setup Assistant: Works alongside the lead to do things like setting up microphones, etc.
  • Zoom Host: Ensures things in Zoomland go well. This should NOT be the Hardware Setup Lead! Focus on how the meeting is going for those in Zoomland. Presenter not in the camera shot? Motion them to get in the shot, move closer, adjust mic, etc.
  • Presenter Support: Supports presenters to do well during the meeting.
  • Mic Runner: Stay with mic the entire meeting, ready to cross the room at any moment to capture the person speaking.
  • Notetaker: Take minutes at the meeting, enter attendees into Action Tracker.
