MVA Meetings Are Going Hybrid - Join Us May 7th!

4/16/2025

0 Comments

 
The MVA is thrilled to announce a new hybrid format for our Monthly Meetings!
 
When the pandemic began in 2020, we quickly transitioned to virtual meetings to keep our neighbors connected while staying safe. Over time, we discovered that many members were able to attend more often due to the convenience of Zoom. In response, members voted to make the virtual format permanent, ensuring accessibility for all.
 
Now, thanks to recent updates at the MVA Info Center, we’re adding a new layer of flexibility. Starting with our upcoming meeting on Wednesday, May 7th, members will have the choice to:
  • Join virtually via Zoom, or
  • Attend in person at the MVA Info Center (1330 S Fourth Street, Columbus)
 
We'll have an MVA board member onsite to stream the Zoom meeting live and help connect in-person and virtual attendees for a seamless experience.
 
📅 Upcoming Hybrid Meetings:
  • May 7th
  • August 6th
  • November 5th
 
💡 Depending on interest, we’ll explore expanding hybrid access to every monthly meeting.
 
In-person attendees: Please arrive between 6:50–7:00 PM to sign in and find a seat.
Virtual attendees: Register in advance here: Zoom Registration
​

​👥 You do NOT need to be a member to attend MVA meetings!
Everyone is welcome to join the conversation and stay informed. That said, becoming a member comes with some great perks!
 
🎉 Membership Benefits Include:
  • Up to 6 free reservations of the MVA Info Center for small personal events
  • Voting rights on neighborhood matters (must live or own a business in Merion Village)
  • The ability to serve on the MVA Board (must live or own a business in Merion Village)
  • The ability to serve on MVA Committees
  • Free registration for the annual Community Yard Sales in May and October (location must be in Merion Village)
