THE MARCH 16 GENERAL MEETING IS CANCELED.
In keeping with guidance to avoid unnecessary public gatherings, the general meeting set for March 16 is canceled. This may appear to be overly cautious here in Orange County, which does not yet have reports of community spread of Covid-19. But being responsible citizens means doing what we can to slow the spread of the disease to reduce the burden on our healthcare system. We hope to reschedule our speaker Nina Simonds for a future meeting.
The April meeting will remain on calendar, and we will assess whether to cancel the meeting as we get closer to the date.
