AOI in the Age of the Covid-19 Pandemic
After more than 25 years of continuous (well, 8 times yearly) luncheon events -- with the exception of February 2003's snowmageddon and Hurricane Isabelle in September 2003 -- the AOI Officers and Directors have put in place a hiatus until the "all clear" is given on the worldwide pandemic.
The AOI Board has continued to meet -- actually in person, appropriately socially distanced -- to carry on the business of the organization, examine options during the pandemic and together with the results from a members' survey consider the future of the organization.
The current AOI board of directors agreed to extend their terms for one year, until November 2021, as the annual membership meeting and election could not be held in November 2020.
On Friday, March 26th at 1 pm the AOI for the first time conducted a Zoom meeting for members only to follow-up on the membership survey that was distributed and tabulated and to hear further comments from members on the path that AOI may consider as we emerge from the pandemic. Here is President Tom Neale's letter of invitation to the Zoom event which summarizes the survey results and the video of the Zoom meeting itself. Please email us with any comments or concerns at aoiofdc@gmail.com.
