While Board Meetings are certainly business oriented, they are conducted in “retiree mode”. This allows for less formality, additions such as “show & tell” (items of wit or wisdom to share) and extra time for all attendees to appreciate one another as well as their retirement status.  All meetings are followed by a joint luncheon activity at different sites.
