AWUGU Meeting Report about Preventing Burdens
by Tom Piper, Coordinator
This Apple World User Group University online gathering of Apple user group
leaders was held at 5:00pm CDST, on April 18, 2022, via Zoom. We had 38
participants for the topic of Don’t Carry the Burden Alone!. The 73-minute
video can be viewed at: https://youtu.be/_IcNTfLbMdk
<https://youtu.be/_IcNTfLbMdk> (unlisted on YouTube).
This session opened with my welcome (especially to new registrants), plus a
quick review of the meeting protocols, and an invitation to submit user group
Product Review web links. Doug Smith, Chair of the Apple User Group Advisory
Board (AUGAB) provided backup support during the call.
Nicholas Pyers, AppleUsers.org <http://appleusers.org/> provided a 45-minute
slideshow presentation about his experiences and recommendations about
distributing leadership and user group duties. Isabel Collins of the Apple
Users’ Society of Melbourne added information and answered questions about the
raffle which they used to provide (and hope to do again). This was followed by
questions and experiences by a number of other participants, several of whom
also shared information about their experiences and suggestions.
Additional questions were asked, experiences shared and suggestions made by
other user group leaders with the following links providing further information
