Even if this particular project is not of interest, it is worth checking out the District website to find out what other clubs in our district are doing. One can also find potential speakers for our own group as Zoom meetings offer the opportunity for a more diverse group of speakers available to discuss issues that can be of value to our own activities and plans for a variety of projects.
