Tech Forum + Technology Adventures
8am Friday 2026-05-01 - In-Person + Online via Zoom

Technology moves fast, but you don't have to go it alone. Let’s leverage our collective expertise to solve our technology challenges.

Bring your questions about computers, your internet service, mobile apps, telephones, or any other technology. During the first half of the meeting, we'll help each other solve tech-related issues.

For the second half of the meeting, we'll switch over to what we call “Our Technology Adventures”. It’s an opportunity for you to talk about new technology you’ve recently started using and the things you find helpful about that technology.
