We know it is hard at Vision's issue-focused, time-limited Board and task force meetings to go off topic and just visit. So, the Membership Development Task Force, led by Chairperson Joash Schulman, is offering a solution.  VBV Board members are cordially invited to informally gather for libations and conversation!  Open to the first 30 registrants and their guests.  Please refer to the invite that was sent via e-mail or contact Vision staff.

Please refer to the calendar invite for Zoom log in details.
