In an effort to stay connected through the pandemic, our board has decided to experiment with a monthly "Lunch and Learn" from home. What used to be our regular in-person unit meetings at Embassy Suites, will now be temporarily replaced during Covid. We're excited about this opportunity to bring you conversations with local leaders in New Mexico politics from the comfort of your home. On [date] at [time], we will try out our first presentation, by using Zoom - an online video conference tool.

> Zoom is an easy-to-use website on your computer at home (or an app on your tablet/smartphone). All you need to do is click on the invitation link below to join the "meeting". The first time you join a Zoom meeting, you will be prompted to download Zoom software which only takes about one minute. Then you can fully participate. When we, as the "host", start the meeting, your screen will automatically connect and show you our faces. We're confident you'll find this to be a fun and easy web tool to manage as we all settle in at home for a while.

> - On either device, you should now be in your app store, where you can download website applications.
> - Once you are in, use the search bar (or spyglass icon) to type in Zoom. 
> - The Zoom app is free to download and use. 
> - You will be asked for your Apple ID password or Google password to approve the download.
> - Once you have the app downloaded, you can "attend" the meeting, or any other meeting via Zoom in the future, by clicking on the link sent to you.
>  
> NOTE: Downloading is one step. Creating an account is another step. You only need to "create an account" on Zoom if you wish to create your own meetings using Zoom. 
>  
> If any of the above does not work for you, please note your problem or question so that we can arrange help for you.
