If you haven’t received the email, check your Junk or Other folder first, then get in touch with us to get a fresh email sent along.

  3. I am pleased to be your online host, to deliver your questions and comments as they arise during the workshop. I will open the Zoom meeting open at 6:30pm Mountain Time.
