Welcome Back to Our New Season at NCWA! Dear NCWA Members: Welcome to this season’s lecture series, which will be held at the Moorings Presbyterian Church, 791 Harbour Drive, Naples. Please note the following protocols we have established to keep members safe in today’s pandemic environment. These protocols have been designed to keep our membership as safe as possible while enjoying engaging, thought-provoking programs. The Naples Council on World Affairs welcomes fully vaccinated members to its live lectures. Those not vaccinated or uncomfortable in crowds are encouraged to participate in our lecture program virtually, either through livestreaming or later viewing of recorded lecture videos. Those attending live lectures—even though they are vaccinated--will be required to wear masks and practice social distancing to the extent possible in this venue. We request that you bring and wear your own masks indoors. If you forget your mask, we will have extras and be able to provide one for you. Please stay home and join us online if you have recently been tested positive for COVID-19, if you think you may have been recently exposed to someone with COVID-19, or you are currently experiencing any COVID-19 signs or symptoms, including fever, cough, shortness of breath, tiredness, muscle aches, loss of sense of smell or taste or any signs of illness. We also want to bring you up to date with the good news that the audio system has undergone updates with fiber-optics, much improved audio and speaker enhancement that we believe will make a great deal of improvement to our speaker presentations. In spite of some additional improvements that are still to come and are caught in the interruption of the global supply chain (Remember your Great Decisions article last season), we are moving forward! Finally, we thank you for your attention and cooperation with regard to the important public health issue of safe practices as COVID-19 continues. With warm regards, Jim Schmotter President, Naples Council on World Affairs |
