They say the oldest and strongest kind of fear is the fear of the unknown. This week, we are putting that to the test because our meeting theme is exactly that: "Fear of the Unknown."

To fully commit to this theme, we are keeping you completely in the dark! Our featured speakers are so dedicated to creating an aura of mystery. It is a true test of courage for our audience: can you boldly log into a Zoom meeting having absolutely no idea what topics await you? We know you can.

In addition to our mystery speakers, our Area 2 Director Daniel will be facilitating a thrilling Table Topics session, challenging us to think on our feet and confront unexpected prompts.

+Meeting Details:
Theme: Fear of the Unknown
Where: Our usual Zoom Room [Link is in our weekly email]
When: Sunday August 2, 2026

Come face your fears, practice your public speaking, and enjoy a lot of laughs along the way. We promise there is nothing to be afraid of!
