Because of events on Jan. 6, the Restless Minds group scrapped its previously announced topic so it could discuss the terrorist assault on the U.S. Capitol.
With hope that calm exists, they’ll try again in February to discuss personal experiences with jobs. The Zoom meeting will begin at 7 p.m., Tuesday, Feb. 9. Those already on the group’s email list will automatically receive sign-in instructions. Others who want to participate should send an email to [email protected], by Feb. 7 for the sign-in details.
All people with open, inquisitive minds are invited to attend. There are no dues or other requirements. Just log in and participate.
