Dear UASBC Members:
With the ongoing restrictions on public gatherings as a result of COVID 19, the UASBC board has been looking for alternate ways to engage with our membership. With this in mind, we have decided to experiment with holding virtual Underwater Explorers Speakers Series presentations using Zoom. Zoom is free to participants and relatively easy to use. It provides good video conferencing and presentation capabilities and is being widely used by other organizations to host events and presentations on-line.
May 27, 2020
7:00 pm on Skype
Given the current situation with the Covid-19 Virus, our 2020 AGM will be held as an on-line meeting using Skype. You will need to have a Skype account to attend the meeting. If you don’t already have a Skype account you will need to go to https://www.skype.com to download the software and set up an account.
Due to the current situation with the COVID-19 Pandemic we will be postponing the UASBC Annual General Meeting which was scheduled for Wednesday, March 25, 2020. Details for the revised meeting date will be sent out in the near future.
The UABC Annual General Meeting will be held at the Vancouver Maritime Museum at 8:30 pm on Wednesday, March 25, 2020.
The meeting will immediately follow the Speakers Series Presentation.
