The MFA has decided to have only virtual monthly meetings. These will be supplemented by several “Field Trip” events during the year. Normally, these will be on a Saturday morning to make physical visits to see departments apparatus and stations as well as have lunch together.
Therefore, the monthly August 2023 meeting of the MFA will be conducted “virtually”.
The access code and directions will soon be provided via a separate e-mail. We encourage you to load the link and try it. If your computer has a camera when you open the link, you should see yourself. Play with it as you are not connected to anything. Doing this will get you used to the system. Once you do this you will be all set to attend.
Our meeting will be on TUESDAY, 22 AUGUST 2023, beginning at 19:30. Please let us know if you need assistance in using this meeting method. It is not hard, and we can walk you through the steps, BUT ahead of meeting night!!
Elliot Paisner, a student in the University of Maryland’s Fire Protection Engineering program will be the guest speaker. During the summer of 2023, he has been doing an internship program at the Smithsonian Institution, which is the world's largest museum, education, and research complex.
Make plans to attend on August 22nd!!!
Remember if you cannot “computer in”, you can call in with the number provided. We hope YOU will mark your calendar and plan to come on-line later this month.
