Many ARA Programs Continue to go Virtual this Fall

Rather than in-person programs for Fall 2021, ARA will continue to use Zoom as the virtual meeting place to keep us engaged. Yes, there will be speakers and presentations, discussions and virtual socialization while staying safe from COVID-19. Stay tuned!

In the meantime:

Programs on Demand (PODs) may continue at the discretion of each POD Coordinator following the prevailing CDC guidelines.

Committee Meetings  may continue at the discretion of each Committee Director/Chair virtually or in person, following prevailing CDC guidelines.

Hikes will continue at the discretion of the Hikes Coordinator, but there must be NO CAR POOLING and must follow prevailing CDC guidelines.
