https://link.rally.video/ELFA-Holiday-PartyELFA would like to invite you to join your colleagues at ELFA's New Year Happy Hour on Thursday, January 21st from 5pm-6pm ET.
This will be a terrific opportunity to catch up and network with industry colleagues. It's not just another zoom meeting: Our virtual networking platform was built to simulate a live venue: You can hop between breakout rooms with one click while hearing the exciting chatter of tables around you. Join any table you like or start your own table. It's fun and easy to participate!
Sponsorship opportunities are available and fifty percent of the proceeds will go to the Capital Area Food Bank, which provides over 45 million meals to people in communities across D.C., Maryland, and Virginia. If you are interested in sponsoring this event, please contact Steve Wafalosky at stevew@larichadv.com or (440) 247-1060.
Tips for Having a Great Time!
We will be using the online platform Rally to gather and network. See below for some quick tips for using the platform!
- Please join through Google Chrome on your desktop or laptop computer-the platform is not mobile friendly.
- You will need a webcam and mic to join.
- To join as a Guest, just type in your name and click Join!
Once you're in, feel free to join a room, and any table within that room. In Rally, you can hear the background chatter of everyone else in the room, just as if you were in an actual reception hall!
If it gets too loud or distracting, you can mute the background chatter by clicking on the volume symbol, next to "All Tables" at the top/right of the screen.
View a quick, 30-second demonstration of what Rally looks like. Please also refer to Rally's FAQ if you have any other questions.
