Committee continues to communicate via email and whatsapp. We continue to answer emails coming through info@pir.org and Tech@pir.org to edit meeting schedules, add new meetings and update the weekly digest mailer and answer general questions.
Our annual website hosting has been renewed once again. It has been paid through May 6, 2025. My credit card is on file with the hosting company (SiteGround) and I will be seeking reimbursement.
Our zoom accounts will be coming up for their annual renewal next month. Please find the associated cost below. Since taking over the zoom meetings the tech committee has cut down on the vast majority of zoom related issues. Thank you for putting your trust in us!
