Subject: Reminder/Invitation to attend OPP weekly meeting 4-13-26
Old Pueblo Playwrights cordially invite you to attend their weekly meeting, Monday, April 13, 2026 beginning at 7 pm. On the first three Mondays of each month we hold a Hybrid meeting, which means, you can join us in person at St. Francis in the Foothills, Room # 50. ( Campus map attached) Alternately, you can join us online through Zoom. (Link below) {insert message from OPP President, John Vornholt}
Okay. There will be an in-person meeting for sure. It may have a Zoom component to it, if we can get some unfamiliar technology working. Anyone who attends on Zoom only should be warned that it may not work. This is not an official hybrid meeting like we've held for 5 years -- it is an experiment.
Also include my disclaimer below.
Frankly, I have no idea how this will work. That's why I will probably schedule a trial Zoom meeting on Sunday. I think our regular Zoom link can go out. Like with the Portal, I won't input the link from the email. (If you remember, I typed it into both Portals before every meeting.) But I THINK the Echo Show allows me to give a voice command to Alexa to join a meeting. (I'll probably do that and instead get Celine Dion's greatest hits.)
So fingers crossed,
John
