May 10, 2022

May 10, 2022

Forum facilitators plan to hold, on March 24, the first in-person Forum since the COVID-19 lockdown of March 2020. The Forum will return to the Belmont Center, 700 Parkwood Ave. at 8:30 a.m.. No meeting will be held May 17, Primary Election Day.
A summary of how facilitators anticipate holding post-pandemic sessions is on the Forum website here.
After two years of constant restructuring in global society, perhaps it goes without saying, but let’s say it anyway: All plans are tentative, subject to change as directed by public health officials, and in response to how the best-laid plans play out in practice.
