The card can be obtained at the Senior Citizen C enter. The process takes about 5 minutes and requires identification such as a driver’s license. We usually have non-residents attending as guest speakers or panelists. If you would be available as a panelist\, let me kn ow and tell the attendant at the door that you are a panelist.\n\nI hope y ou are all well. Welcome to our second meeting continuing our meetings at the Huntington Senior Center on Thursday\, October 20th at 1:30 PM in Room 214. And we will attempt to continue at the same time and location on a m onthly basis. Our room is at least twice as big as 205.\n\nPlease confirm your interest in continuing as a member of our group\, whether you will at tend the 10/20 meeting\, your preferred email address and any other inform ation about your interests. Also mention anyone else you know who was a me mber or would like to join us. I am going through our prior sign in sheets as well. I am a bit rusty and slower and need assistance in continued org anizing.\n\nA current area of interest is Robotics and Automation. Several of us have organized an LI Chapter of the IEEE Robotics and Automation So ciety and we have purchased several educational robots. We put on several robotics workshops for children at the Harborfields Library and we plan to bring them to other libraries. When mentioning it to Julia Frangione\, sh e thought it would be a great workshop to present to other Seniors at the Center. It would be in addition to our regular meetings. We can continue d iscussing this at our meetings..\n\nThe agenda I am planning for our meeti ng is as follows:\n\n1:30-2:00pm – each person attending will spend a fe w minutes bringing us up to date on their activities.\n\n2:00-2:30pm – w e will stream and pause to discuss the second lecture in The Great Courses Series Robotics. An outline of the whole course is attached.\n\n2:30-3:30 pm – We will demonstrate and share operation of the Create3 Robot.\n\n3: 30-4:00pm - – we will evaluate the experience and decide whether to cont inue in future meetings\, or do something else.\n\nWe are considering a Zo om connection for those with interest and concern who cannot attend in per son.\n\nI haven’t checked everyone yet\, but I sadly report that we have lost two members and they will be missed. Bob Bozzone and Don Clarke. If you know of others\, let me know.\n\nFeel free to ask additional questions .\n\nThe Huntington Town Senior Citizens Center\, 423 Park Avenue\, Huntin gton\, NY 11743.
