As we continue to build new Members, our **open format** PIT meetings will continue on ZOOM this week.

David Stewart will be facilitating the meeting.

As much as we all miss the intimacy of meeting “in person,” there have been many great moments, phenomenal questions and conversations we’ve had since having to move to this format.

If you’re struggling at work or are facing re-employment issues, please join us.

Dear Members of the Professionals In Transition® Community,

We will continue our **Zoom only** “open format” meetings this week due to the ongoing construction at the Red Cross estimated to be completed by late March. Our hope is to be able to resume meeting in person next week. 🤞

We are sorry for any inconvenience that this may cause.

Please bring your reemployment questions to our meeting tomorrow.

Thanks

Dear Members of the Professionals In Transition® Community,

I learned tonight a little bit after 6 PM that the American Red Cross is in the process of reconstructing our regular meeting room. I don’t know at the moment if this means we will be meeting in person in an alternate room or if we will be meeting completely on Zoom. Construction is scheduled to go on through March 20th.

Please look for *another email* from me in the afternoon to let you know our new room (which we have easily accommodated to in the past) or if we will only meet on Zoom tomorrow night (Thursday) through March 20th.

We will continue with our “open format” meeting tomorrow to address your re-employment needs.

We continue to progress towards selective “topic driven” meetings and speakers too!

Remember, one of our key goals is to reignite our weekly networking community, while maintaining our Zoom attendance. Please call or respond to this email with feedback or suggestions.

Bring any of your re-employment questions tomorrow.

Thanks!
