[Coco] Glenside Club Meeting: Thursday July 15, 2021 @ 7:30PM

[Glenside President (Jim Brain)]

Months that start on a Thursday always mess up my announcement timing, 
and I apologize for the late notice. I trust no one will be completely 
blindsided by the upcoming meeting. They come regularly, like clockwork, 
though you’d think I’d put a reminder on the calendar to ensure I didn’t 
get surprised by the date.

It’s roughly 4 months until our November in-person CoCoFEST! In fact, 
webmaster Eric Canales placed a countdown timer on the main web page 
showing the time left before show opening on Saturday morning. Project 
and presentation creation time grows short, but excitement builds as we 
count down to our first in-person show since April 2019. As I noted at 
the last meeting and in the recent newsletter, I’m eager to share this 
new venue with attendees, as I think it offers even more community and 
collaboration options than Heron Point.

Along with some more discussion around the upcoming show, we should 
start thinking about the 2022 show schedule and the options. As well, 
I’d like to gauge interest in a Q3 physical or virtual get together. In 
years past, the annual picnic/cookout happened in this quarter, though 
other options are also possible. Obviously, not everyone can drop by the 
Chicago area in the next few months, but perhaps a physical party with a 
virtual component might be of interest.

I hope everyone received the most recent club newsletter. I continue to 
revel in the work folks put into the quarterly publication, and I hope 
you found at least something of interest in the latest issue. As always, 
Steve his team eagerly appreciate submissions by our membership. No 
writeup is too small!

Please join us this Thursday, July 15th, to get updates on the club and 
activities. And, if you’re interested in more social perspectives, 
please consider joining the call at 6:30PM Central (1 hour prior). It’s 
a great opportunity to visit with far flung members, watch some 
demonstrations, hear about projects, and just enjoy some humor.
