Clubs across District 5500 are now using Zoom to hold Board Meetings, Club Meetings, and even Club Retreats.  Guest speakers are being invited to present to clubs using Zoom with great success.
 
Getting set up to use Zoom is quite easy, even for those who don't consider themselves very computer literate.  Below are the detailed steps to download Zoom on your desktop or mobile device.  If you have any questions or need any help, please contact DGE Diane Ventura-Goodyear at:  dvg@rotaryd5500.org.
