NEW! NEW! NEW! DISCORD SERVER!
The Guild now has a Discord server of our very own.
“Why should I care?” you say. You should care because
Discord is a terrific way to communicate with other guild
members outside of meetings. This is a place where you
chat, share photos and other media, ask questions, talk
(like on the phone), and bond with other guild members
outside of meetings. The best part is that it’s free! (do not
pay for this service unless you really know what you are
getting into)
Our Discord server will be open to all for a tryout period
over the summer break. A password will be added this fall
when the new season gets going.
To learn more about Discord check out this video that is
for parents of tweens but explains Discord and its caveats
well.
Discord’s Basics page has plenty of information about their
services:
