Happy Thanksgiving from your TMC Family!

11/30/2020

0 Comments

 
If you're reading this, we'd like to say thank you. 

Year after year we've been amazed at just how wonderful our TMC Family truly is. Though this past year has been challenging, our members and partners have stepped up to the plate and have truly made the most with what we have, bringing the Power of the Network to more of our membership than ever before. Needless to say, we never would have made it this far without the combined efforts of each and every one of you.


We asked everyone on our team to share what they're thankful for this holiday season, and we would love to hear from you as well. We hope that you had a safe and happy holiday!

"Lanie McKayla Alexander born on 3/6/2020; Carleigh learned how to ride a bike, swim, and read her first book
Joslynn's personality has blossomed - she can vocalize her wants and needs better this year, she learned how to write her name and a few additional words, and has learned so much through sheer curiosity; Carleigh and Josy have had a lot of time together and have become very close; We put in a pool that is sure to bring many years of great memories; Pete's pole barn is coming along and we have an outdoor space with the pavilion to share dinner, lunch and breakfast outside with family and friends; My dad FINALLY retired; And we welcomed our first niece to the world!"

12 Days of TMC Frequently Asked Questions

11/20/2020

Picture
I registered for the event - now what?
Once you send us your registration information, you should receive an email with instructions on how to access your event account using the same email that you registered with. If you have not received that email, contact Amy at aboor@mtgcoop.com or your Member Benefits Advocate.
What's the difference between the mobile and desktop 'app'?
The web 'app' is just the website. The mobile 'app' is like any other app you download on your phone, which you can learn how to do here.

On the mobile app it is easier to find talks, add items to your agenda, networking via the community boards, watch videos or webinars, and receive communication from organizers and attendees. Your phone camera and microphone will work via the mobile app for zoom communication. The desktop app is better for zoom communication when you need/want to use a desktop or laptop webcam and videos will be larger on the desktop app.
Is there a preferred browser that I should use?
It is strongly recommended that you download and use Google Chrome for minimal difficulties in accessing the event. If you use Safari, Microsoft Edge, or Firefox, it may be easiest for you to participate in sessions by utilizing the Zoom link that will be dropped into the session chat function at the start of each session.
Can I familiarize myself with the app before the event starts?
Absolutely! Build out your agenda, virtually network with other TMC Family members via the community board, learn about what all of our great sponsors have to offer, and more!
​How do I add sessions to my agenda?
After making your way to the Agenda tab on the Whova app, select the session you're interested in, and click "Add to My Agenda". If you're interested

How can I ask the presenters questions?

What should I do if I can't access the session I want to attend the day of?
Check the Whova chat box and access the session through the Zoom link that the moderator will have posted at the start of the session.
What if I can't hear the presenters?
If you're accessing the session through your web browser, try refreshing the page. If that doesn't fix the problem, then check the Whova chat box and access the session through the Zoom link that the moderator will have posted at the start of the session.
Who should I contact if I'm having technical difficulties?
If you're having any technical issues, you can contact our TMC Team here and we'll work with you to resolve any problems you may be having!
