Huuuuuuge success !!! Wow ! Thanks to all of the @tcclub staff making this all happen. Today was our first @vanex_association in-person meeting with program and all. It was a hybrid meeting also accommodating people dailing into zoom. Back to the new normal. 3 people at a table - ensuring social distancing at all times. TCC has gone above and beyond and we are so so grateful to be able to meet back in person - all due to their Covid safety measures. We’d like to express our gratitude to VP @allanrobrtsn who made sure everything went perfectly smooth during the meeting as he worked several computers to accommodate everyone who chose to be part of the meeting. Thank you too to our President @swelscher for doing an amazing job winging it at times and just going with the flow. @ Terminal City Club
