<p style="margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Our quarterly meeting will be held on Friday, February 2<sup>nd</sup>. This meeting is hybrid and we are starting our first “pods” meeting, so if you
would like to attend in-person, you will actually be meeting within your region. However, if you can’t accommodate traveling, you can attend from your very own desk via Zoom. Our meeting will start at 10AM and end at 2pm. OYAN official business will run from
10AM-12ish, a 30 minute break for lunch, then we'll meet in our pods either in-person or virtually from 12:30PM-2PM. If you have anything that you would like to be included in our agenda, please email Mark Richardson at markr@wccls.org and Ian Duncanson at
iduncanson@beavertonoregon.gov so we can add it.</span></p>
