Ready for IRL events?

Baltimore's reopening hit a new gear lately. On July 1, COVID-19 restrictions across the state were relaxed, ending mask mandates and capacity rules. Today, we've got word of bigger, in-person events being planned this fall. 

 

Are you ready to get back out for in-person networking? What would make you feel safe at an IRL gathering? Let us know at baltimore@technical.ly, or by replying to this email.
