I use Zoom weekly for: 1. Sunshine for Seniors Coffee, Tea and Chat - which I moderate for one hour on Wednesday mornings. 2. Sunshine for Seniors Short Story Club - which I moderate for one hour on Wednesday afternoons. I bought a domain name and created a website for that https://eldertalk.ca / 3. Junction Writer's Forum every 2nd Monday where I read stories of others and submit some of my own. 4.

Toronto Bead Society about once a month. 6. EMCC where we are now having hybrid meetings centered on the Imperial Pub in downtown Toronto. And so it goes....
