Hello again all, Looking forward to another evening of discussion. Just sending out one final call for questions or topics you wish to be addressed. Jane please correct me if I'm wrong, but from your emails I gathered that you wished to discuss helpful and inexpensive GPS apps, as well as problem solve some travel ideas that were sparked from the Presidential release. Below are the last remaining questions we had on our original agenda: How could we work with folks to plan detailed hypothetical out of town trips, so they have an understanding of what goes into planning for a vacation or business trip? This way we could potentially utilize O&M as well as tech skills. How can we get folks thinking about mental mapping places they haven?t been yet? How can we help our students overcome fear, especially in uncertain times? In general, not necessarily focusing solely on cane travel... Thanks again everyone for your time and talk to you soon.

Pasted below is the zoom participation information for your meeting which begins at 4:00 CDT. After the zoom information I have pasted the list of everyone who is invited to this meeting.
For added security, you will be asked to enter a password.
Ground Rules: If you are not speaking, please mute yourself for better call quality (Mute button, Star 6, Alt - A on the keyboard, or the bottom left corner of your iPhone). If you wish to speak, please unmute yourself and state your name. After completing your comments, please re-mute yourself. It is very difficult to hear everyone clearly if many lines are open at once. Lastly, try your best not to talk over others; brief pauses and silence are OK.
