    On September 5th we are launching a NEW series called "Keeping Up." Various TLT members will share something new they are experimenting with and everyone is welcome to pose a question or challenge you would like to group to address. This link will take you to a Google form to post your question.

    "Keeping Up" will be offered on the first Wednesday of each month for TLT Members. In these informal sessions members are invited to:
    • Share something new you are experimenting with or have just discovered.
    • Come with questions or challenges you are facing. We will brainstorm possible solutions together.
    • Come and listen.
    As always, we invite you to become a TLT member if you are not already. Join us by following this link. Direct your membership questions to Sally Gilbert
