Monthly Zoom Meeting

Event: Zoom Meeting – End of the Month Social

Presentation: Tales of the City

Time: Saturday, January 29, 5 pm BA time

Zoom: email tonilin@aol.com for Zoom meeting info, or join the BAIN DT Zoom room as you have in the past

It’s been a while since we’ve seen each other. Let’s check in. We have some new members who might be joining us. And members around the globe who can chime in, too. Some have returned to the city, some have plans to return.

We are still hoping to see each other in February — Ladies Night? Picnic in the Park? — but in the meantime …

Bring a story about an experience in Buenos Aires. A restaurant, an event, a place in the city you want to visit as soon as you can get to it. Why you came to BA. Why you stayed. What you miss. Or just come to visit while others tell about their Buenos Aires.

Minimum Covid talk, please.
