<div dir="auto">Ok the schedule....let's just say lunch follows presentations or make it precise at 1 pm. Speaker time is tricky as I said in earlier email. We only have the building until 2:30 --- our rental of the building is from 7:30 am - 2:30 pm. So Speaker could be 1:30 - 2:00 pm . I told Robert he could have 30 minutes Closing remarks follow immediately, no need to write in time or make it official, closing remarks 2:15pm. <div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">OK does this sound good?<br><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"><br></div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sat, Feb 8, 2020, 10:57 PM Amy Olson <<a href="mailto:akeo@me.com">akeo@me.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div style="word-wrap:break-word;line-break:after-white-space">Hi JW and Lorraine,<div><br></div><div>I was able to update the workshop and some other info on the conference start page.
